Taco Soup

Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound hamburger, browned
  • 1 pkg taco seasoning (choose whichever brand/amount of heat you would use on a normal taco)
  • 1 onion, medium-fine chopped and sautéed
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced and sauteed with onion
  • 1 large box or can of beef broth
  • 1 can corn
  • 1 can black beans
  • 1 can rotel (can use salsa)
  • ½ tsp. cilantro (only if dried, fresh cilantro will be much stronger, add to your liking for taste)
  • 1 pkg. medium tortilla shells cut into squares (pizza cutter works great for this)  Use these as “crackers” for your soup and add to your individual bowl when serving.

Instructions

Directions:

  1. Cook over medium heat covered for approx. 30 minutes, or enough to allow flavors to meld.
  2. Can also slow-cook in the crock pot.
  3. You’ll notice the measurements are vague as I didn’t include specific can/box sizes.
  4. This recipe isn’t dependant on perfect measurements or ingredients.
  5. I often substitute/add extra home-canned veggies, salsas, broth etc.
