To prepare for the huge blizzard last weekend we first had to make Nana's Taco Soup! When you have the chance of snow in Texas you prepare like you won't get to make it to the grocery store for weeks. Stores run out of bread, milk, water, eggs, gas stations are so crowded you can't find a spot. People from the north look at us like we are crazy. (Bless our hearts) Anyway, we got a few flakes but nothing stuck. No snow day, but it was still cold enough that Nana's soup was a necessity.
Ingredients:
1 lb shredded cooked chicken
2 cans hominy
2 cans pinto beans
2 cans diced tomatoes
2 small cans green chilies
3 cans chicken broth
2 packets McCormick Taco Seasoning Mix
To shred chicken:
Place chicken in pot, add just enough water to cover the chicken.
Bring to a boil and cover. Reduce heat to low, making sure that it still maintains a boil and cook until done, about 25 minutes.
Remove chicken from pot, let cool and shred.
Drain hominy and rinse pinto beans. Place in large pot with remaining ingredients.
Simmer for 2 hours.
Serves 12 - 205 calories per serving
Also great with tortilla chips or cheese
The instructions say crushed red pepper and fajita seasoning. Those items arent listed in ingredients?
ReplyDeleteOops!! I had copied the shredded chicken recipe from my previous post. You don't need it in this one. The soup has plenty of spices in it for the chicken. Thanks!!
