1 can stewed tomatoes
1 pkg taco seasoning mix
1 pkg ranch dressing

mix cooked ground beef with remaining ingredients. Do not drain liquid from cans. Let  simmer for 30 minutes.


Spiced Apple Cider
(For those cold days)

2 quarts Apple Cider
1/2 brown sugar ( may substitute brown sugar/splenda)
6 whole cloves
6 sticks of cinnamon
1 sweet navel orange, unpeeled, thinly sliced
2 slices of lemon, unpeeled, thinly sliced

Tip:  Should you cook on high, the cider may become bitter.

You are most welcomed.

I will share some others.

My fav are my deserts.   :P

My goal will be to share only fairly easy recipes which taste good.

Btw, I am going to make Taco Soup for The Souper Bowl with tostito scoups and an easy Velveeta Cheese Dip

The Dip will be 1 can of rotel diced tomatoes (original recipe) along with 1 pound of velveeta cheese cut in 1 inch cubes. Heat in small crock pot preferably or in microwave until hot and smooth.

We will have some other goodies.

Have made the dip in the past and it is really good.   :)
