it is finally starting to cool off a bit around here......october is one of the strangest months for weather, if you ask me.....this weekend the high is only going to be 60 degrees ~ yeah!!! i am quite ready for fall temperatures.....and to break out those boots, jeans & long sleeves :)
as an ode to cool temps i thought i would post some soup recipes.....these are very basic, very easy & very good, comforting soups.....i like to call them *dump soups* because other than browning ground beef it is just a matter of dumping all the cans together and letting it simmer.....
Santa Fe Soup
picture from kraft foods
I was given this recipe from my sister.....it is definitely a family favorite for the entire family and it is so easy to double or even triple for large gatherings....
Ingredients:
1 lb. ground beef, browned & drained
1 can black beans, undrained
1 can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can white shoepeg corn, undrained
1 pkg. taco seasoning mix, low sodium
1 pkg. dry ranch dressing
1 can water
*dump* all ingredients together either in a crockpot for 6-8hrs on low or simmer in a stockpot on stovetop for 2 1/2 hours....
....serve with fritos, sourcream, cheese & chopped green onions
Cold Night Soup
this recipe was birthed one night as a combination of several recipes and ideas....nothing fancy, plain & simple....a good semi-homemade recipe....
Ingredients:
1 lb. ground beef, cooked & drained
1 small onion, chopped & cooked with beef
2 cans hearty vegetable soup, i like campbell's
1 can lima beans, undrained
1 can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can whole kernel corn, undrained
1 can rotel tomatoes, which ever heat you like, drained
*dump* all ingredients into crockpot.....high for 4 hrs or low for 8 hrs
....feel free to add any other canned veggie you would like.....i may add green beans next time....i love to serve this with cornbread....
Enjoy......Bon Appetit!
