I made soup for brunch.  Well, I made soup to freeze, but I ate some for brunch :)  And it was delicious!  And super-easy, which is also a plus!  We have plans to make about 4 different soups to freeze and take home, and this is the first one we've conquered.  It's kind of like a taco in a pot :)  Here's the recipe!

2 lb ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can pinto beans
1 can black beans
1 can kidney beans
2 cans shoepeg corn
1 can rotel tomatoes
1 large can diced tomatoes
2 C water
2 packets taco seasoning
2 packets dry ranch dressing mix
shredded cheese, sour cream, and Frito's for topping.

In a large pot, brown ground beef and onions.  Add all other ingredients and stir to combine.  DO NOT drain any of the cans.  Dump as is.

Serve topped with cheese, sour cream, and Frito's.


Seriously, easiest soup ever.  And very hearty and delicious!  And it freezes well, sans toppings.

I love soup in the winter.  We have three more to make this week!  I'll let you know how they turn out!  Gotta stock up on easy lunches and dinners, freezer style :)

Now, it's time to hop on the trainer.  Look out this afternoon for a gear post on it!
