I saw this recipe on a friend's site and had to copy it. I couldn't stop laughing at how cute it was. So sorry about all the recipes this week there were to many good things to post:)

Another great recipe!

Taco Soup
1/2-1 lb. Ground beef
1/2 onion, chopped
1 can of corn (not creamed), with liquid
1 can of stewed tomatoes, with liquid
1 can kidney beans, drained
1 can black beans, drained
1 pkg. taco seasoning
Ground the beef and drain off fat. Cook onion for a couple minutes until tender. Put beef and onion in large cooking pot. Cook on Medium heat. Add corn, tomatoes, kidney beans, black beans, and taco seasoning (the original recipe didn't call for black beans, but I always add them and it turns out great). Cook for 20 minutes covered, let lightly boil. Serve with shredded cheese, sour cream, white corn chips and guacamole.

If you dont like meat this is good without the hamburger too just add more corn and beans.
