Mealtime Mama: Mexican Soup

Well, sounds like we’re going to be plunged into the deep freeze on Tuesday (woe!), so we wanted to share our friend, Dawn Stanford’s, awesome Mexican soup recipe.

Dawn got this recipe from the parent of one of the kids in her youth group about 20 years ago when she was a youth minister in Texas. The recipe has served her well over the years! Dawn brings this soup to potlucks and Bible study girls’ nights out and she plans on making it for her family this week since it’s supposed to get cold again.

We’ve tried the soup and it’s delish:

DAWN’S MEXICAN SOUP

1 can corn

1 can hominy

1 can Rotel tomatoes

1 can black beans

1lb. browned ground beef OR turkey (optional to add onion or green peppers when browning the meat)

1 package Good Seasons Italian Dressing mix

1 package Taco Seasoning

Directions: Mix all ingredients together (do not drain the cans of veggies). Heat over medium heat OR crock pot. Serve over rice or Fritos with shredded cheese sprinkled on top! Serves about 6-8.  I usually double the recipe to fit in large crock pot. ENJOY!!!

Thanks, Dawn! We plan to make this soup ASAP!
