Weight Reduction

It is a cold day today where I live, so I thought that I would share a healthy recipe with you.  This recipe is full of fiber and lots of good stuff and is low on fat and calories.  It is a warm and satisfying meal and my entire family loves when I make it. I hope you enjoy it as well.

Taco Soup

1 lb lean ground beef

1 large onion, chopped

1 can dark red kidney beans (15 oz)

2 cans chili beans (15 oz each)

1 can fat free refried beans (15 oz)

1 can whole corn (16 oz)

1 can chopped tomatoes (16 oz)

1 can tomato sauce (15 oz)

1 ½ cups water

1 can diced green chilies (4 ½ oz)

1 pkg taco seasoning mix

1 pkg Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix (dry)

Sauté meat and onion.  Add all vegetables.  Do not drain vegetables before adding.  Bring to a boil.  Simmer 15 minutes.  Serve.

You can top this soup with low fat sour cream and low fat cheese.  It is also good when you crumble a few tortilla chips on top.

This soup freezes very well.
