I am creating Taco Soup.
Texan's have something called a "Mexican Food Tank", and when our tank gets low, we get cranky. My tank is low.
I am starting with about 1 pound of ground beef. Or 2 pounds, I dont know, just brown up some beef.
I am using the crock pot again for maximum flavor enhancement.
I will add about 2 ounces of taco seasoning to the browned meat and simmer for about 15 mins so the flavors really get in there. (I am using a shot glass for measuring)
Throw the meat in the crockpot, add a can of whole kernel corn (drained), a can of whole pinto or black beans why not both???(drained), a cup of grated cheese. Add a can of Rotel if you want to spice it up, around here, I don't dare add anything with color or Dad won't touch it.
I figure I will just simmer that on low till dinner time. A few hours at least. I will let you know how this experiment works out.
Also you should have some tortilla chips around to serve with it.

My bowl.
I also made some Sweet & Sour drink mixer from scratch to make margaritas, but I rummaged through the liquor cabinet and didn't find any tequila, but I found the Whiskey so I made myself a whiskey sour! I feel warm and cozy. I'm gonna put my p.j.'s on and cozy up on the couch. :) It's about to get CHILLY here, 45 tonight, 35 tomorrow night...
