I looked everywhere for my taco soup recipe and could not find it. An old friend had given it to me and it was always good. So, I decided to use my "not so good" memory and come up with something similar and maybe even a little bit healthier.
Taco Soup
1 lb of Ground Turkey (not breast meat)
1 onion Chopped
1 pkg of Taco Seasoning **
1 pkg of Ranch Salad Dressing Seasoning **
1 can of corn, drained
1 can of pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 can of kidney beans, drained and rinsed
2 cans of diced tomatoes
1 can of diced tomatoes with green chiles
1 - 2 cups of water as preferred
Saute onion and meat in pot or dutch oven (sometimes I add a little oil). Drain off excess. Add all other ingredients. Bring to a boil. Let simmer at reduced heat until ready to serve. I usually simmer at least 2 hrs. I do think the longer it cooks the more the chiles heat up. Don't know if that is true or not, it just seems like it to us. If you don't like any spice just use regular diced tomatoes. Serve with cornbread, corn chips, a dollop of sour cream, or cheese. **Note: I used Simply Organic brand for these, I like to find seasonings without MSG or other yucky stuff.
