September Soup
With the evenings getting a lot cooler, it is soup time at our house! If you know me, you know I like to prepare and cook simple foods, because at this season of life, I have limited time to prepare meals. I enjoy cooking, but I don't always have the extra time to prepare a lot of foods that require hours in the kitchen. So, I like simple recipes, I have limited time, and healthy foods are a must...so here is a soup that fits all the above! It is similar to my Chicken Taco soup recipe, but it is vegan and it taste better! Simple Taco Soup
2 cans of beans....I use one or two cans of black beans, one red beans
1 can of organic diced tomatoes
1 1/2 cups water
2 TBSP of taco seasoning (I use mild)...be careful and read the ingredients, some contain msg
1 chopped yellow onion
Chopped cilantro to taste....this makes it so yummy!
Simmer for 20 minutes
Serve with organic blue chips or tortilla strips.
I am a stay at home mother to 4. I am very blessed to have a godly husband who loves the Lord and his family. I welcome the days of much needed grace,the times of sweet victories,and the tears of trials,knowing it is all for God's glory. I want my lifesong to sing to Him,the author and finisher of my faith. Soli Deo Gloria--To the Glory of God alone.

Hi,
I just made this exact recipe last night! It felt a little like Fall here yesterday. I love to have little bowls of chopped avocado,yummy organic tortilla chips and some shredded cheese out too.
I love your blog (s)! ;)
Mmmm, yummy!!!
Make your own taco seasoning and be assured it doesn't have MSG in it. :) This is the one we use -

* 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
* 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
* 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
* 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
* 1/2 teaspoon paprika
* 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
* 1 teaspoon sea salt
* 1 teaspoon black pepper
DIRECTIONS
In a small bowl, mix together chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, oregano, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper. Store in an airtight container.
Yum, I will be trying that one!
Love soups like this on fall nights. I make my own taco seasoning too, and at least I know what's in it.
Thanks, Gina, for the recipe!
