Taco Soup

This is a wonderful warm soup that is both healthy and filling. I love that it has very few steps, is an easy clean up, and I can leave it on the stove to cook while I accomplish other things.

3 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes

1-1 1/2 pounds hot Italian turkey sausage out of skin

1 or more large sweet onions

1 small package Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing mix powder

1 package McCormick Taco seasoning (I prefer low-sodium)

2 (16 ounce) cans red kidney beans plus juice

1 (16 ounce) can pinto beans plus juice

Chopped Garlic

Cilantro

Brown meat, drain fat. Brown onion. Add all other ingredients and seasonings and simmer for about an hour on the stove to blend flavors. Add water if you like it thinner.

I pair this with either a crust loaf of bread or tortilla chips.
