The base for this recipe is awesome. Didnt care for frozen veggies in the first batch so hence the four stars. For second batch, used canned veggies, used more taco seasoning (because I like the heat), and simmered for two hours. Was pretty amazing with these changes unless you dont mind frozen veggies. Cant beat the flavor for the simplicity.

My family LOVES this soup. The taco season I chose was a little bitty but even through they don't do spicy, they still loved this!
