Stuck in a Rut: Taco Soup

Taco Soup

I get stuck sometimes when I cook, I tend to make the same 5 things week in and week out. Pinterest has helped quite a bit with trying new recipes, BUT I still go back to my familiar, easy, favorites.

So I thought I would share some new and old recipes that I consider easy and are doable while chasing a 2 year old around. And honestly to keep a journal for myself for when I get stuck in a rut cooking and want to try some different recipes. 

Last night I made Taco Soup and it was delicious and better yet - easy! I had searched online and tried to compare all of the different Taco Soup recipes out there but when it was all said and done, I called my mom. So I can't claim this recipe to be my own, it came from my Mom and it was a hit last night!

Taco Soup:

1 lb ground beef, browned
1 can Rotel (I used the Aldi brand and it was perfect)
1 can Pinto Beans
1 can Kidney Beans
1 can Corn
1 pack of Ranch Seasoning (I used Aldi's brand once again and no one could tell)
1 pack of Taco Seasoning (any brand - I used Aldi's brand)
8 oz Sour Cream

Shredded cheese and tortilla chips for toppings.

Don't drain any of the cans. Brown the beef and drain most of the fat, return beef to pan. Pour all of the canned foods and seasonings in the pan you used to brown the beef, except for for the sour cream. Heat until boiling. Right before serving mix in the sour cream.

Serve with shredded cheese and tortilla chips and Enjoy!


**What is even better about this recipe is it is inexpensive to make! Bonus!!**
