Ingredients
6 oz lean ground beef1 cup dried macaroni noodles1 can dark red kidney beans, with liquid.1 can pinto beans, with liquid.1 can low-sodium tomato sauce1 cup chopped fresh tomatoes1 cup chopped yellow onion3 fresh garlic cloves, finely chopped1 Tblsp cumin seeds, freshly ground1 Tblsp dried oregano1/2 tsp paprika4 cups water or beef broth (can use more or less depending on how thick you want it)
In a stockpot, over med-high heat, add canola oil. Add ground beef, onions and garlic and cook until brown.
Add macaroni, beans with liquid and tomatoes and stir well. Season with salt and pepper. Add cumin, oregano, paprika, tomato sauce and water or broth.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat - taste and adjust seasoning - cover and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, uncover and let stand for 10 minutes (It will thicken as it sits). Enjoy!!
I use as many organic and low-sodium foods as I can when I cook for my daughter: organic canned beans, veggies, broth, etc.
If it's a little bland, play with your spices, I just make it like this because Abby is only 18 months. I drain the liquid and she has a great assortment of finger foods that she loves. And it's a filling, healthy soup for me too!!
