I'm so sorry!

I didn't even think to check the blog before I went shopping. I made French dip also. Please forgive me and if you don't like French dip I would be happy to exchange any of my meals or make you something else. I love this food exchange and am so thank full to all the great cooks!

Taco Soup

1 pound ground beef cooked
1 15 oz can tomato sauce
1 15 oz can corn
1 32 oz can diced tomatoes
1 15 oz can black beans (or any kind of beans you love)
1 package taco seasoning


Mix all ingredients together.  Do not drain any of the cans you need all the liquid for the soup.  Heat through in either the crock pot or stove top either way the soup turns out great.


Serve over tortilla chips and top with cheese and sour cream.
I estimated that this serves about 8 and serving size is 1 to 1.5 cups.  It is always plenty for us.  If you need more you could add another can of beans.

Mexican Chicken

6 chicken breasts

1 can green chilies

1 can diced tomatoes

1 can cream of mushroom soup

1 can cream of chicken soup

1 cup grated cheddar

1 onion, chopped

 

Put all ingredients in a 9 X 13 pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 1 hour, or until chicken is done. Serve over rice.

 

We like this with corn as a side and also with a green salad.

 

This is for 8 servings.  I actually think it will be a little less because this makes a lot of sauce and we usually have leftover sauce that doesn't get completely eaten.
