Solar Oven Recipes

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. ground beef
• 2 packs of taco seasoning
• 1 can of diced green chilies
• 1-2 cans of small red beans
• 1 can of black beans
• 1 can of Kidney beans
• 1-2 cans of corn
• 2 cans of tomatoes with green chilies
• 1 tbsp of Salt (or to taste)
• 1 bag of corn chips
• Fresh Salsa
• Sour Cream

Steps:

• Set out solar Hot Pot or solar oven with large blackened pot to pre heat about 15 min.
• Add loosened ground beef to pot and cover.
• Allow to cook until 80 % done, about 30-45 minutes

In the meantime

• Open cans of beans, combine and rinse them with water in a strainer.
• When ground meat is almost cooked, drain excess fat and then stir in your taco seasoning packets, salt and your can of green chilies.
• Cover and allow it to cook for about 15 minutes.
• Combine in a bowl your beans, corn, (with juice) and tomatoes.
• Mix together and then take your bowl to your solar cooker and mix these ingredients into the solar pot, stirring until all is well mixed.
• Cover your pot and allow the soup to cook for 3-6 hours.

*You do not need to stir the soup but once during the remainder of the cook time.

Results:
The longer your soup cooks the darker it will look due to the simmer action allowing the flavors to meld and enhance.

Serve in bowls topped with a handful of corn chips, fresh salsa and sour cream.
