Taco Soup - Great for the whole family - Paleo or not

This one was proven true with the little ones.  Since they are non Paleo they ate it with nacho chips, chedder cheese and sour cream on top.  As did my husband.

Cooking Steps

1. In a large soup pot over medium heat, brown up the beef.
2. Remove the beef from the pot and add in the onion, green pepper, squash, and garlic.
3. Once veggies are soft add the beef back into the pot along with all of the spices.
4. Stir around till al the spices are fragrant.
5. Now add in all the canned ingredients and the beef broth. You can add more or take away some of the broth depending on how soupy or thick you want this dish to be.
6. Let this simmer for about 20-30 minutes. Taste to see if you need salt and pepper.
7. You could also garnish the top with some minced red onion, avocado slices, or cilantro. This is also very good the next day after the flavors have a chance to come together even more.
