Simple Taco Soup image

This recipe came out of the Southern Living magazine January 2009 issue. I have posted it just as it was written; however, when I make it I use regular diced tomatoes and add one small can of green chilis (taco aisle) and saute one jalapeno pepper along with the onion, garlic and ground beef. I also stir one cube of cilantro (Knorr makes this) into the soup as it cooks instead of using fresh cilantro on top. This freezes pretty well as long as you don't add sour cream and cheese to the whole pot.
