SNEAK IN THE VEGGIES TACO SOUP

Steps:

• cook the ground meat in a skillet seasoning w/ salt and pepper to taste and drain. (you can also used left over diced meat, just throw that in the crock pot. whatever you have on hand works great here).
• put all ingredients in the crock pot. add water until everything is just covered. be careful, my crock pot is pretty full by now!
• give it a stir, put on the lid, and cook on low.
• cooking time depends on your crock pot. some cook at a higher temp than others and will take less time. i have an old rival and i put my soup on in the morning and it's perfect by dinner time.
• you can also make this on the stove in about an hour.
• right before serving adjust seasonings and salt and pepper to taste.
• note- if you use bullion cubes this can get a little salty so be careful! and we like lots of seasoning in this so we use 2 full packs of taco mix.
