Contest-Winning Taco Soup image

I have to admit that when a good friend gave me this recipe, I wasn't certain I'd like it. But, after one taste, I changed my mind! My husband loves it-especially when the weather's cold. I've also fixed Taco Soup for my parents and in-laws, and taken it to church suppers. We live in a small oil-field town, and have two children, 7 and 5. I grew up on a ranch in the panhandle of our state, though, and even today I find I sure miss the country at times!

I've made this soup several times and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make and it's so delicious. I love that I can use ground turkey or beef. I also like to add a can of corn and a can of black beans. I highly recommend this soup!
