Favorite Rainy Day Soup

This is our family's favorite soup on a cold, rainy day. Other's that have tried it love it too, so I thought I would share it with you!

Taco Soup (EASY!)
1-1 1/2 lbs. ground beef
1 sm. onion, chopped
2 cans beans (any combination: pinto, chili, black, red)
2 cans water
1 can corn
1 can rotel (or just chop a tomato)
1 sm. can tomato paste
1 packet ranch dressing
1 packet taco seasoning

In large pot, brown ground beef w/onion. Add all other ingredients and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer 15-20 min, occasionally stirring.

Today though, I didn't have any ground beef cooked (and I didn't feel like cooking some) so I omitted it and am throwing in some leftover cooked rice. I've used leftover refried beans (tastes wonderful and thickens the soup). I rarely use canned corn just b/c I don't usually buy it, but I do throw in the frozen corn and it comes out just fine.

Serve with tortilla chips, shredded cheddar, and a dollop of sour cream. MMMMmmm sooo good!

Been Awhile, I know..

I don't think I posted about this, but I may have come across the best blueberry pie recipe I've ever tasted. You can find it at http://www.pickyourown.org/ (a really neat site with LOTS of helpful info). Anyway, I used their pie recipe and here is how it looked (after Daddy swiped a piece)!

It was so tasty and it didn't last long in this household. Easy too! If you have some blueberries in your freezer that you need to use, be sure to check this recipe out!


WELCOME

Hello! I am thrilled you are here! . I hope this will be a blessing and valued resource to you, your family, and friends.

I've started a list of products with "tried and true" large family recommendations. Everything listed will not work for every family, but hey, if I can save someone else the time of searching the web for all these resources, then it would be worth it.

For homeschooling families, I will post links to sites for all types of subjects, resources, and curriculum. Once again, most of these links will be particular favorites that have been successful for our family, or for other homeschool families. Remember, “tried and true” will be our mantra!

Remember that I constantly update links, add links and categories ALL THE TIME. Also, if you don't see a favorite link that you LOVE, post it here in a link and I will get it uploaded.
