I made this soup last night and thought it was great. I used a large can of crushed tomatoes instead of the tomato soup which i thought would have been to salty, and the crushed tomato adds more texture to the base. I also added more cumin for a deeper 'tex-mex' flavor. Served with tortilla chips and shredded 'mexican' cheeses! -
This is VERY GOOD, made for dinner last night. It was the first time that I had made Taco Soup. My Husband is a big soup eater. He enjoyed this very much. Served it with grated Cheddar Cheese, Sour Cream and Tortilla chips.

One of my passions (after my husband, 2 sons and their families) is cooking, from simple things to gourmet. I get great pleasure out of pleasing my family and they return the favor to me.
We do a lot of family things together, but probably our favorite is going camping, getting a little grubby and doing alot of trout fishing.
Both of my sons, my brother and myself love to cook (even when we are camping) so everyone around us eats quite well.
We have gotten into Dutch Oven cooking when we are on these trips. It's a lot of fun and everything tastes so good! But when you're out in the fresh air, even burnt hot dogs are great.
My greatest hobby, the past few years, is making personalized cook books for my closest friends and family. Everyone seems to enjoy them and I add recipes to them every day. I started with a volume for myself, because I got tired of trying to remember which cook book a recipe was in....it has increased to five volumes and will soon be six. I have done the same for them, too, and enjoy every minute of it.
