TACO SOUP

Taco Soup

  • 1 (16oz.) can Ranch-Style Beans undrained
  • 1 (16oz.) can kidney beans, drained
  • 1 (16oz.) can hominy, drained
  • 3 (16oz.) cans of stewed tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 package of dry taco seasoning mix
  • 1 package of dry ranch dressing mix
  • 2 lbs. of cooked and drained ground chuck or ground round
  • 1 medium white or yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 small can of Rotelle
  • 1-1/2 cups of water
  • grated cheese (optional)
  • green onions (optional)

Brown the meat and onion together. Add to a large pot with all the canned items. Add the water and dry package ingredients. Stir until well mixed over a medium heat. Cook on low about 30 minutes. Serve in soup bowls topped with chopped onion and grated cheese. Serve it with corn chips or do like we do and serve it with a pan of yellow cornbread. You'll soon replace your "special chili / and or veggie soup nights" with this yum-o soup!!!

Note: I got this recipe from my dear Aunt Erma in Oklahoma...she fixes it almost weekly and shares it with my cousin Jimmy's crew on the oil pipeline down there...she said they LOVE it when she cooks....well - Duh!
