Beren and I have a busy Sunday planned, are donning our pirate attire and heading out to the Renaissance Festival! It's such a gorgeous day, still a bit chilly which will be perfect for an outdoor event. Today's theme is Wenches and I'm very tempted to enter the Bodice Costume competition! I might need a couple pints of ale to get me courage up for such a thing! *wink*
Since I know I won't feel like cooking when I get home and don't want to be tempted by all of that festival food, I'm going to toss this quick & easy soup into the crock pot before we leave.
Slow Cooker Taco Soup

12 ounces Morningstar Meal Starters Grillers Recipe Crumbles
1 1/4 ounces taco seasoning mix
