Taco Soup

It doesn't get much faster or easier (or tastier) than this simple taco soup. It makes a lot so you can make a batch, freeze the extra and you've got another dinner already to be defrosted a few weeks later. 

 

Time: 15 minutes

Makes 9-2 cup servings

 

•  1 lb lean ground beef or turkey
• 3 tbsp taco seasoning (or 1 packet)
• 4 cups of water
• 4 cups of low sodium stock
