Taco Soup

Well the sun is out here in Seattle. It's supposed to be 70F by Saturday. Looks like soup season might be winding down. 

This soup... oh my goodness...I am not even sure what to say about it other than it was FAN-FREAKIN-DELICIOUS!! It's definitely going into the favorites category for this year. 

It's a simple soup, but it packs a lot of flavor and textures. It's definitely hearty.  And the best part I had almost everything in the pantry to make this soup. I didn't have diced tomatoes with green chilies. BUT I had diced tomatoes and a can of green chilis. Close enough. 

I didn't change anything in this recipe (well except the diced tomatoes) significantly. I added a hit of hot sauce and a bit more chili powder. I served it along side warmed up flour tortillas - great for dipping in the broth.
