I wanted to share a new recipe with everyone now that it’s starting to get colder out! This recipe is so yummy even the kids devour it! A fellow homeschooling mom shared this recipe with me a few years ago and we’ve made it ever since! It’s called “Hot Taco Soup”  and if you like tacos and you like soup/chili, then you’ll absolutely LOVE this!

  1. My Mom makes this a lot for gatherings because you can make such a huge pot of it really simply. I love that it gets all the delicious toppings. Mmm sour cream, guacamole, cheddar, fritos. Now, I'm hungry for dinner, lol, this may have to go on next month's menu!
