Might as well start out the thread with my taco soup recipe for Liz.
2 lbs ground beef
3 cans diced green chilies
3 cans (14.5 oz size) diced tomatoes
1 medium onion
6 oz velveeta (cubed)
3/4 cup heavy cream
6 oz cream cheese (cubed)
42 oz beef broth
1/4 cup taco sauce or salsa
spices: chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, ground bay leaf, salt, red pepper (you're going to have to adjust them to your own taste)
In a large soup pot, brown ground beef on medium high heat, then drain grease. Add onions and continue cooking on med high heat for about 5 minutes.
Add diced green chilies, diced tomatoes, beef broth and spices. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for at least 30 minutes.
Before serving, add velveeta and cream cheese. Stir frequently, until cheeses are melted, then add cream and taco sauce.
This makes 8-10 servings. Top with sour cream, if desired.
