taco soup

This is one of my favorite meals to make because it's a one pot meal, it's full of veggies and legumes, and everyone loves it.

Soup:

1 pound lean hamburger meat

1/2 large yellow onion

1 can black beans, drained and rinsed

2 cans kidney beans, drained and rinsed

1 can corn, drained

1 can sliced olives, drained

1 can diced tomatoes

1 can water

1 Tbsp. brown sugar

2 taco seasoning packets

Topping:

shredded cheddar

sour cream

tortilla chips

chopped cilantro (optional)

First, brown 1 pound of hamburger with 1/2 large onion (diced) in a large pot until the hamburger is cooked through and the onion is translucent. Meanwhile, drain beans, corn, and sliced olives. Add to cooked hamburger and onion. Add one can of diced tomatoes and one can of water to pot and stir. Stir in 2 taco seasoning packets and 1 Tbsp. brown sugar. Bring to a boil then cover and let simmer until you are ready to serve.

Serve with shredded cheddar, sour cream, tortilla chips, and cilantro!
