Lazy-Girl Mexican Meatballess soup!


From Stephanie Barton’s Kitchen to yours -

1 lb ground beef 1 Lg Onion, diced

Salt, pepper, garlic powder

Brown ground beef in your large pan or stew pot with seasonings and onion.

Add:

8 cups of water with 3 Tbsp. of beef bouillion powder (I used some from Alison’s Pantry) and

3/4cup of uncooked rice

Bring pot to a boil on high, then turn down to med/high heat to simmer.

Peel and dice:

6 lg carrots 2 sm – med potatoes - add to the pot

Core and dice:

1 anaheim pepper - add to the pot

Add: 1 -15 oz can of diced tomatoes w/garlic and onions

Sprinkle in a little cumin and parsley and a dash of cayenne pepper.

You may want to add a little more water if it becomes too thick – use your judgement.

Let pot simmer for about 20 minutes until carrots and potatoes are tender.

I topped mine with cheese and served with tortilla chips!
