RECIPE BACKSTORY
After tasting Taco Soup at a restaurant, I found myself hunting the boards for a recipe. I found this one (same idea, different name) and after testing several, it really hits the spot. It's a full meal but not overwhelming. It beats every other recipe I've ever tried, but I am always open to improvements. This doubles up and freezes well.
