Taco Soup


Comfort food....that's what this is.  We had it tonight after it had been raining all day, and it just sounded yummy.  It's so easy to make, after browning the meat, everything else is just dumped in.  That's it.  Nothing fancy, just plain goodness.  After looking at a few different recipes, I threw this one together.

1lb. ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped fine
1 can green chiles, undrained
1 can corn, undrained
1 16 oz. can kidney beans, undrained
1 16 oz. can tomato sauce
1 can Rotel tomatoes, original flavor
1 pkg. taco seasoning

Garnishes:
shredded cheese
cilantro
avacado, diced
corn chips (we like chili cheese Fritos)
sour cream
sliced olives

Brown beef with onions until cooked through.  Drain fat.  In a large pot, combine beef and onion mixture with the tomato sauce, kidney beans, corn, tomatoes, taco seasoning, and green chiles.  Simmer, covered, for about 15 minutes and garnish as desired.
