Taco Soup!

I can be lazy sometimes, there is no way around it. I like things that are quick and easy and nothing is easier then bringing out the crock pot and allowing the crock pot to do all the work for you! Just mix a few simple items together and forget about it for the rest of the day till it is time to eat a nice hot and healthly meal!

My family gets sick and tired of the same old thing every night and we are always looking to try something new and exciting. I stubbled across a recipe for taco soup in one of my grandmothers old cookbooks and I changed a few things to fit our family's unique tastes and adapted it to be cooked in the crock pot.. and tata... this recpie was created!

1 lb of ground hambuger
1/2 cup onion
5 large tomatoes (or two cans of stewed tomatoes)

8 oz can of tomato sauce
1 package of dry taco seasoning
