Good character, like good soup, is usually homemade.
Stacey at Poofing the Pillows is having a favorite soup & Chili recipe exchange today. I have many favorite soup recipes because I love soup. I chose this recipe for Taco Soup because it’s so easy and because it was always one of my kid’s favorites. Remember the best way to serve a meal is with a smile!
Taco Soup
1 ½ lb. Lean hamburger
½ c. chopped onion
1 can (28oz.) tomatoes w/ juice
1 can (14oz.) kidney beans w/juice
1 can (17 oz.) corn w/juice
1 can (8 oz.) tomato sauce
1 pkg. taco seasoning
1 to 2 cups water
Brown beef in a large pot with onions, cook till onions are tender. Drain, add remaining ingredients, simmer 15 minutes. Serve with tortilla chips.
Something to be thankful for is that with today’s higher prices, at least when you don’t buy something, you save more money than you used to. And this is perplexing, why does food with half the calories or fat cost twice as much?
I certainly hope that you all have a lovely weekend! Twyla
What a cute little image. I like the saying at the bottom of it. Have a lovely and safe weekend, yourself! :)

Taco soup is yummy. I've never made it though but have eaten it a few times. Thanks for the recipe & stopping by my blog. Hope you come back often. It's great to 'know' you. Take care, Debrak
ReplyDeleteHi ladies...thanks for posting a recipe for one I love to eat in restaurants...I'll be trying this soon! And I've asked myself the same question...why does food cost more when they leave stuff out???
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween ;-) BO
Loved your take on saving money. And guess what that soup that you posted the recipe for is also one of our favorites. Also, I have the same dishes. Have had them forever and just can't seem to part with them. Thanks for stopping by. Jackie

I love Pfaltzgraff! I love Taco soup! And both together... makes a beautiful meal! Great recipe. Also... thanks so much for your sweet comment about my little kitty Gracie. She is very much missed but is in a better place now. Have a fun evening tonight... I look forward to passing out treats to at least 200 kids! They just line up at the door!
ReplyDeleteHi Friends...
ReplyDeleteThat soup sounds so yummy! I will have to try it~ I'll wait for our next cold front...today it was 70 degrees here in Upstate New York! Only miles away they had 6" of snow~
I agree with the cost of 1/2 the calorie food....it should cost 1/2 as much! Teehee...because it often tastes 1/2 as good!
:)
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
