Welcome to the Madness, this month’s recipe is a delicious and easy to make taco soup. You will need the following ingredients:
• 1 lb. meat (hamburger, turkey, chicken, etc.)
• 1 white onion
• 1 can black beans
• 1 can kidney beans
• 1 can diced tomatoes
• 1 can Ro-Tel tomatoes and green chilies
• 1 can corn
• 1 packet taco seasoning
• 1 packet ranch dressing mix
• 1 ½ cup water
• shredded cheese
• sour cream
• tortilla chips
In a large pot, brown meat and chopped onion. When done, add all undrained canned items, the ranch mix, taco seasoning and water. Stir all ingredients and cook until nice and hot. Upon serving, crush tortilla chips into the bowl, add cheese and sour cream if desired and enjoy! This soup is very filling and a good choice for the cold of winter.
