We took a trip to Los Angeles on the current episode of The Contrast Podcast. Well, Tim did at least. A whole bunch of contributors offered up songs about the City Of Angels. You can have a listen here.

While you are singing about Los Angeles, you can stir up this easy and wicked good soup.

Beefy Nacho Soup

Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef
1 Tbs taco seasoning
1 can (10 3/4 oz) condensed nacho cheese soup
1 can (10 oz) diced tomatoes and green chiles, undrained
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup crushed corn tortilla chips

Directions:

1. In 2-quart saucepan, cook ground beef over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly cooked; drain.

2. Reduce heat to medium. Stir in remaining ingredients except shredded cheese and tortilla chips. Cook 8 to 12 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring frequently.

3. Top individual servings with shredded cheese and tortilla chips.
