Taco Soup

I made some great taco soup yesterday that my kids think is so fabulous it should be blogged about. Here's how I did it the lazy way. Lazy cooking is very important in my life because otherwise we're eating pancakes again, not that there's anything wrong with that.

1. Start with a crockpot.
2. Throw a frozen hunk of uncooked low fat ground beef in it. One pound works.
3. Add some frozen corn.
4. One or two cans of beans, any kind.
5. One or two cans of chicken stock
6. One or two cans of chopped tomatoes (blended or not)
7. Tiny can of chopped green chilies.
8. 1/2 A jar of salsa that may or may not still be edible.
9. T's and t's of cumin, red pepper, garlic seasoning and chili powder.
10. If your chicken stock isn't salted then you will need to add salt.
11. Cook on low, breaking up the hamburger as it thaws, until you're ready to eat.
12. Serve with corn chips, grated cheese, sour cream.

Make a big pot because it will taste especially good the next day when the temperature drops twenty degrees and you don't want fist fights breaking out over taco soup.
