An Easy Delicious Crock Pot Soup

Taco Soup
(From Lisa Willis)

Ingredients:

1 lb hamburger
2 cups chopped carrots
2 cups chopped celery
1 cup beef broth
2 cans cream of potato soup
1 pkg. taco seasoning
2 cans kidney beans
1 sm can tomato sauce
2 cans stewed tomatoes (1qt total)

Brown the hamburger in a skillet. Add in celery and carrots and sauté until mostly soft. (The softer they are, the shorter time you can cook in the crock pot, if you want to cook it all day on low then you don’t need to soften as much.) Combine remaining ingredients in the crock pot and add in meat and veggies mixture. Cook on high for 2 to 4 hours or until veggies reach desired tenderness.

This makes a very large batch of soup so if you are only cooking for a few people or a weeknight dinner I would half it. Can be served with bread, tortilla chips, shredded cheese, sour cream, avocados, etc.
