February is National Canned Food Month.  The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics list several benefits of canned food:
  • Long Shelf Life

  • Preservative free

  • Nutritious

  • Convenient and portable

For this week’s Good Eatin’ Recipe Hop, I decided to share a family favorite. This recipe for Taco Soup can be quickly prepped and uses canned goods that are usually stocked in our pantry.  We are a family of five, so we I make Taco Soup I try to make enough for leftovers.  That isn’t all ways the case though.  If you need a smaller quantity then it should be a snap to cut the recipe in half.  Looking for a Meatless Monday Meal?  Leave out the ground meat and it is still a hearty meal.
