    Taco Soup in the slow cooker (AKA: Crockpot)

    I do this one in the slow cooker - you can make it vegetarian - just omit the meat, I've made it both ways.

    Brown 1 pound of ground turkey, drain off fat, dump into slow cooker.
    Add:
    1 can of corn (drained)
    1 can of Creamed Corn
    1 can of Rotel
    1 can of stewed tomatoes
    2 cans of beans (your choice- sometimes I do red kidney chili beans, sometimes white beans, sometimes I get the S & W beans with chipotle seasoning on them)
    1 packet of Taco Seasoning
    2 soup cans (from the corn or beans) of water

    Mix well, and cook on low all day - your kitchen will smell AWESOME!!!
    I serve with sour cream, Juanita's chips, shredded cheese, and taco toppings (fresh tomatoes, onions, etc).


    Hubs loves this soup, and when coming home for dinner can smell it outside and is excited for dinner.

    This soup sounds amazing! And my husband is all about tacos!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Slow Cooker Jambalaya
    approximately 5-6 servings (I actually got 10)

    1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 inch cubes
    1 pound smoked turkey sausage, sliced
    1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
    3 Tbsp dried minced onion flakes
    1 cup chicken broth
    2 teaspoons dried oregano
    2 teaspoons dried parsley
    2 tsp minced garlic
    2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
    1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
    white rice or instant rice (I used 2 packs of Uncle Ben's Ready Rice - Garlic & Butter flavor)

    In a slow cooker, mix the chicken, sausage, tomatoes with juice, onion, garlic, celery, and broth. Season with oregano, parsley, Cajun seasoning, cayenne pepper, and thyme. (I do this the night before and put it in the fridge. I put it in the slow cooker before I leave in the morning.)

    Cover, and cook 7 to 8 hours on Low, or 3 to 4 hours on High. Mix in cooked rice cook for about 15 minutes to warm through.

    The very first recipe-I make it with no liquid and I ball up aluminum foil to set the chicken on. It keeps it from getting too fally aparty. I season it with season salt and it tastes just like a grocery store rotisserie chicken.

    My slow cooker has a rack. Never used the rack, will have to try it. But no liquid?

    Nope, no liquid! Rack would be perfect. I've also used upside down glass prep bowls instead of foil balls.

    I serve it on buns with cheese and pepper rings. Then left over meat I make tacos or flautas or can freeze for another meal.
