Because I bought those fun Halloween themed molds from Aldi, I also wanted to make cornbread with some chili for a cold night.

Instead of chili I ended up making taco soup. It is so easy just using a variety of canned beans with hamburger meat. Not as good as my Mom’s rainy day chili that would sit on the stove for hours. But does fine in a pinch.

To make this soup, just brown and crumble 2 pounds ground beef. Then add one package Ranch dressing and 1 package taco mix. Then add the following canned beans:

chili beans
black beans, drained
Pinto beans, drained
Canned Corn, drained
Diced tomatoes
Rotel tomatoes
Diced green chilis

Simmer all ingredients over the stove, add water to make it less thick. Enjoy!

Then just using a cornbread mix, pour into molds to make Halloween cornbread.

Although the cornbread was good, the poor pumpkins had issues popping out of the mold. The ghosties did better than the pumpkins but you really need to look at the shape to see the ghost. But that is ok. I knew it was a ghost.

Thanks for checking out my blog.
