My crock pot is a kitchen tool I really wouldn't want to be without. On days where we plan on being busy it is so nice to come home to a nice, hot meal simmering away. Another plus is if I'm out later than dinner time the members of my family that are home can go ahead and eat if they want to.
This recipe could easily be cooked on the stovetop or in a pressure cooker. I just usually make it in the crock pot.
Taco Soup
1 lb. ground beef, turkey, or pork (your preference)
2 c. cooked black beans
1 cup corn
2 c. tomato sauce
1 c. diced tomatoes w/green chili's (or just use plain diced tomatoes if you're not into spicy)
2 T. taco type seasoning
1 T. chili powder
1 tsp. onion powder (or could use 1/3 cup chopped onion)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
Brown your meat & drain off any fat. Then pour everything else into the crockpot. Add in just enough water to where everything is just covered. Cook on low for about 7 hours or high for about 4.
You can serve this as is or you can pour some over some tortilla or frito chips. Then sprinkle on a little shredded cheese.
This is so easy & you can adapt pretty much any of the ingredients to suit your taste.
This makes about 7 good sized bowls.
