Taco Soup
This is my mom’s classic taco soup recipe. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like it! It is a crowd pleaser, and is perfect for the fall season as the weather is cooling down for us here in Texas. Taco Soup serves a lot, so my mom will usually make it when my Dad is on business trips. She will just eat taco soup all by herself for a whole week. That was she can sew and not have to cook! Enjoy!
Brown meat with onions and green chiles over medium-high heat.
When meat is browned, add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil.
Simmer for 30 minutes.
