Taco Soup-Emily

Ok, this is really fast and easy. It is also Jesse's favorite so, we have it all the time in the fall and winter. Plus, you only use one pot so cleanup is just as fast and easy!!!

1 pound hamburger
1 can corn
1 can black beans
1 can chili beans (Not Chili)
2- 8 oz. cans tomato sauce
Seasonings: onion powder, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and cumin
1 package taco seasoning
shredded cheese
tortilla chips

In a soup pot season hamburger with onion powder, garlic powder, seasoned salt and cumin to taste and brown it. (Literally, you don't need to measure just add until it tastes good to you.) Once meat is browned, drain off excess fat if you want (I use a very lean burger so I don't drain mine). Next add all of your cans to you browned meat. Don't drain the liquid just throw it all in. Season soup by adding one package of taco seasoning. Stir and heat until desired temp. Place in serving bowls and top with shredded cheese and crumbled tortilla chips. I sometimes put a spoonful of sour cream and salsa in my bowl as well. Enjoy!!!

* You can also blend up the corn and beans to hid them from your children that won't eat them if they know they are in there, or if you have picky husbands that don't like the texture of the beans. It will taste the exact same just a little thicker.
