Carpenter’s Soup (2 X4 Soup)

A gardener once wrote that February is the longest SEASON of the year. I agree, and the second longest is January. Lets face it, after Christmas is over the only thing to look forward to is a big pot of hot soup to warm you to your toes. This easy soup gets its name from using 2 each of 4 ingredients. Our good friend Milton Morgan shared this recipe with us a few years ago.

2 cans Rotel

2 cans pinto beans (I use whatever I have on hand, great northern, or our favorite, black beans.)

2 pounds ground beef

2 cans ministroni soup

1 can water

Brown and drain ground beef. Add all the rest of the ingredients. Heat and serve. Serves 6 to 8.
