Taco Soup

"This is a great soup for the cold days of winter. It is very filling all by itself, but I like to pour it over cooked rice and add a little extra cheese. About a zillion calories, but in the winter you need substance to keep you moving. I realize we really don't have "cold weather" in Texas, but I don't like cold of any kind. The orginal recipe for this soup was from a co-worker, but I have tweeked it so much that if doesn't even resemble the orginal recipe. I now claim it as "My Recipe". Enjoy!"

  1. I've tried several taco soup recipes and this was the hit for my family! Low fat yet full of flavor and best of all....easy! I put in the crock pot for 3 hrs and I think it could stay longer. Because we don't like chunks of tomatoes, I used one can 24oz crushed tomatoes and one can 14oz stewed tomatoes. Perfection!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am an avid cook, golfer and traveler. I lost my first love in '93 and thought golf would fill the hole in my heart. It did not, but Charlie did. I met him one morning at a local resturant. We started talking, discovered that we were both widowers and had a lot in common (golf, travel, etc). I believe in love at first sight and have had it twice in my lifetime. I had no children by my first husband, but now I have 4 beautiful children and 5 beautiful grandchildren. How lucky can one woman be. We have a home-based travel business, which allows us to travel the globe. We love to cruise and I love to try and recreate the wonderful food served on the ship. I love to bake and desserts are probably what I am best at making. We entertain alot and I love to cook for a crowd.
