This week our challenge was to share a favorite soup recipe. When I asked Jerry what he would like me to fix he immediately chose Taco Soup. I decided to make enough to share with Mom and Dad. I waited until Wednesday to fix the soup and luck would have it, Wednesday was perfect cold, rainy soup weather. I am sharing my basic recipe but feel free to use your favorite tomatoes and beans. This is the first time I have added hominy to this recipe and it really added a nice touch. I hope several of you will join us each Thursday and share your favorite recipes. Just click on the Love to Cook Thursday button and follow Kipi's directions. This is a great way to share your recipes with your friends.

Taco soup is probably my favorite go-to quick meal in the fall. Our recipes are pretty similar. I love to use fritos, but sometimes I will make cornbread and use it instead...just depends on my mood. ;)
Thanks for posting!
