Taco Soup!

A coworker of mine drew my attention to Taco Soup because she brought it for lunch once day, and it looked delicious!  Luckily, I found this recipe in my slow-cooker cook book.  (Note:  Don't have a slow-cooker?  You can make this in a regular pot.  I'd brown the meat first, then add the other ingredients and simmer for 30 minutes or so.)

Taco Soup

Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
4-oz. can chopped green chilies, undrained
1/2 tsp. salt
1 envelope dry low-sodium taco seasoning mix
1 envelope dry low-sodium Ranch-style dressing mix (Note:  I didn't use this b/c I really don't like all the chemicals I saw listed in the ingredients.  Instead, I made my own Ranch mix by chopping 2 cloves of garlic, 3 green onions, a handful of parsley, and some fresh dill.)
3 (14 1/2 oz.) cans low-sodium stewed tomatoes, undrained
16-oz. can kidney beans, undrained (Note:  The recipe says "undrained", but I drain and rinse the beans.)
15-oz. can pinto beans, undrained
1 1/2 cups water
(I add a can of corn.  The recipe doesn't call for it, but I think it tastes nice.)

Directions:
Mix all ingredients together in large slow cooker.
Cover.  Cook on low 8-10 hours.
Optional:  To serve, you can top it with crushed corn chips, avocado, cheese, and/or greek yogurt (instead of sour cream)

Serves 8.  290 calories and 3.5 grams of fat per serving. (without the toppings)

  2. Hello, my name is RITA CARMEN and I have been trying to get pregnant for over 12 years. i have been looking for ways online for so long, I first did Depo Provera Shot which i consecutively took every three months in order to get pregnant or fertile, but there was no way from it. I did Depo shot for 3 years constantly until my Doctors in Australia told me to try IVF because I had Endometriosis stage 4 and I resulted to try IVF (In Vitro Fertilization). For months after my IVF no progressed and my situation became worse that my husband had already had plans or getting married to another woman because I was barren. I read a testimony about Prophet Abulele how he had helped so many women with pregnancy problems and also how he usually casts return spells to bring back partner and make one fertile. Of all options tried, I gave Prophet Abulele a try. I am now a mother of a baby boy. For over 13 years of my marriage I received my help from this spell caster. I want to impact on someone's life and make the person get help from a good spell caster. Prophet Abulele's email is:- prophetabulelehealingtemple@gmail.com and his WhatsApp is +2349022406159 once you contact him, he will help you fast.
