Sunday Lunch

With outdoor temps in the high 20s, we opted for comfort food today.  Something simple, warm ad filling.  Taco Soup.  T he recipe is right here.

Belle got a new crock pot for Christmas, and decided to give it a whirl.  It's a big ole ceramic cooker, an 8-quart model, and she made a double batch of taco soup to see how it would do.  What I like about meals like this is that you can brown your meat in a skillet or dutch oven, then start transferring stuff into the ceramic cooker.  Put it on low, let it bump, and you don't have to stand over the stove stirring and wondering.


With corn chips, shredded cheese, and maybe a little sour cream, it will fill bellies with warm goodness.  Taco Soup, it's what's fer lunch.

That must be a hot crock. Mine don't bump. A frog would have time to jump out...

For other toppings try shredded cabbage, thinly sliced radishes, minced onion and such. Adds a nice flavorful crunch to the soup.

I checked the link and re-read your earlier post. Wish I had all the ingredients on hand to whup up a batch. With the forecast mini-blizzard on the way, it'd sure be fitting. Stay warm!
