  1. I make a soup very similar to this except we call it taco soup and it has taco seasoning in it as well as a packet of dry ranch seasoning. minus the salsa and olives. and serve with tortilla chips! also freezes well and make a big pot. so we eat for dinner both take lunches next day and freeze for later too! oh, and i make it with chicken b/c its free but can make with g.beef also! yum! one of my favs and so so easy!
