Taco Soup
 

Taco Soup

Brown 1 pound ground turkey or beef w/ some chopped onion. I added a little olive oil to keep the onion from burning cause there is almost no fat in the turkey. Add 1 package of taco seasoning and 2/3 cup water (I dont know if this is legal because it has some starch and maltodextrin, if not replace w/ ground cumin). In large pot, add 1 large can no sugar added tomato sauce plus one can water, 1 can diced tomatoes w/ juice, 1 small can green chilis, 1 can red beans (drained and rinsed) and the browned ground meat. I also added a few dashes each of onion powder, garlic powder, ground red pepper, black pepper and a few dashes of tabasco for seasoning....I'm trying to cut back on salt. Let simmer for about an hour. Top w/ a little shredded cheese. It was very quick and easy to prepare! Made a nice size pot so we will get a few more meals out of it.
