Taco Soup
(we found the basic recipe in the Freedom cookbook. It has just the right amount of spice. Might want to adjust according to your families preference. I did make a few other little changes. Its great! Makes a good size pot. )
1 onion, chopped
3-4 cloves garlic (chopped fine and cooked in hot olive oil for about 45 seconds or so)
1-1/2 lbs cooked hamburger
1 28 oz can your choice of tomatoes (we like petite diced with chiles)
4 sm cans tomato sauce + one can water
1 15 oz can whole kernel corn
1 can kidney beans or red beans
1 pkg taco seasoning or about 1 -2 Tbs
1 can chiles (if you use tomatoes with chiles that should be enough
1 Anahiem pepper, chopped fine (optional)
1 15 oz can of chili beans
salt and pepper to taste
Mix altogether and enjoy. After it is hot, turn down to low and cook for about 15-20 min. This would work great in a crock pot. Cook on high until hot, turn to low and cook 2-4 hours.
