Tortilla Soup

1 lb hamburger
1 can mexi-corn
1 can black beans
1 can hot tomato sauce-optional
1 large can of tomato juice (46 oz)
1 bag small eggshell noodles
1 cup salsa
Cook hamburger, drain the fat. I usually rinse off the corn and beans. Add corn, beans, tomato sauces to the hamburger. I let it simmer for about 20 minutes before I add the noodles. I also don't cook the noodles all the way, if they get to soft they fall apart. I add pepper, garlic powder, seasoning salt just to your taste. Sometimes the noodles suck up the juice so just add some water. Serve with tortilla chips, cilantro, sour cream, and cheese.

Taco Soup

Here is a quick and super easy delicious recipe. It makes a ton but it is great for leftovers.

1 pound ground beef
1 can corn (I use 2)
1 can sliced olives (I use 2)
3 small cans or 1 large can stewed tomatoes
1 can tomato soup
1 can red kidney beans
2 packages taco seasoning (I use 3)

Brown the ground beef and drain grease. Add everything together. You can add more or less to taste and desired consistency. I think I may add a can of water.

I serve it with Frito Scoops on top. I also put cheese and sour cream on the top. So easy and so good! ~Alyssa
