February Recipe Swap: Terrific Taco Soup

This recipe was given to me from my mission president's wife. She gave me a recipe book as a wedding gift that has quite a few delicious recipes that I will be sharing here with all of you. :-)  And if you're looking for a fast and easy yet filling meal this would be the one!

1. 1 pound ground beef, browned. (I use ground turkey and it tastes just as good.)
2. 4 cans stewed tomatoes (15 oz. cans) cut up or whirred in a blender (I used only 2 cans and left the tomatoes alone and it was good but do whatever floats your boat.)
3. 1 can kernel corn plus liquid
4. 2 cans kidney beans rinsed and drained
5. 1/2 to 1 cup chopped onion...this recipe doesn't call you to saute the onion but come on ladies we can do better than that. Trust me saute the onion first cause it brings it to the BA-BAM level!! 
6. 1 envelope taco seasoning
7. 2 cups water

Mix all together in a large pot and simmer 20 mins. to one hour. Serve with tortilla chips, grated cheese, sour cream, sliced olives...I also made easy peasy Jiffy corn muffins talk about YUM! BA-BAM! I made this for a Trunk or Treat once doubling the recipe and I brought home an empty pot! ; )
