Taco Soup - Recipe

I am really trying to turn over a new leaf with what I eat, some days I will admit are easier than others.
Soup really does make the perfect lunch.
With the colder weather we are having I decided to try and find some "spicy" soups.
This one is not too spicy, excellent flavor and is very filling.
I have been eating it all week long. :)
