Taco Soup

1 lb extra-lean ground beef ( I used ground turkey)
1 onion, chopped
3 cans (15.5 oz each) mild chili beans, undrained
1 can (14.5 oz) whole tomatoes undrained
1 can (14.25 oz ) corn, undrained
1 can (8oz) tomato sauce
1 pkg Taco Seasoning
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Brown meat and drain. Add onions and salt and pepper to taste and heat for a few minutes. Add all remaining ingredients except cheese; stir, breaking up tomatoes with spoon. Bring to boil; simmer on medium low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Top with cheese, sour cream, and crushed tortilla chips.

A few modifications: I used ground turkey instead of beef. For the corn I used mexicorn and the beans I used some cans hot and some mild. What really made this yummy....I used mexican four cheese with a touch of philadelphia.

Tasty Tacos

We're huge Mexican Food lovers here. Peter is always trying out tacos at new places and always gets one chicken, one steak, and one chorizo. Well, I decided to try some chorizo at home and it was Gooooooooooood! This is what we did...VERY EASY!

Chorizo Taco
Place chorizo in pan and cook up. Once cooked, keep warm and add chopped onion (just to warm not cook completely).

Chicken Taco
Place 1 jar salsa in crockpot. Add in three frozen chicken breasts seasoned with taco seasoning (or fajitia seasoning). Cook on high for 4 hours. The salsa will just about gone. Shredded up the chicken and stir.

Serve on warm corn (or flour) tortillas with sour cream, cheese, and taco sauce.

Mmmm, mmmm, good!
