Taco Soup from a can

Ok, this is the easiest recipe. The soup is decent, not amazing, but it can pass for a pretty decent meal. And sometimes when I am really lazy or there is nothing in the fridge, I leave out the cheese, and chips and optional extras. It's the perfect recipe for food storage too, since it's all cans.

So are you ready?

1 can Stewed Tomatoes (the mexican kind is good, or regular, but don't get italian-that's just weird)
1 can Yellow Corn
1 can Black Beans
1 can Kidney Beans
1 can Green Beans (Just the regular cut kind)
Taco Seasoning (I usually use half the packet, to cut down on sodium)
Shredded cheese
Tortilla Chips

Optional:
Sour Cream
Guacamole
Browned Beef

So open all the cans and dump them into a big pot. Yes, even the juices from the cans. Then I cut up the stewed tomatoes a bit. Turn the heat on medium or medium-high. Add your taco seasoning and beef (optional). It should be warm in about 8 minutes. Pull the pot off the stove and serve into bowls. Top with tortilla chips, cheese and sour cream and guacamole.

So easy...open cans, pour them in a pot.
