1 pound ground beef, browned
1 package taco seasoning
2 bell peppers, any color, cut into bite-size pieces
2 bunches green onions, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1 tomato, chopped
1 package (8 ounces) manicotti pasta, uncooked
2 cups water
1 jalapeno, if desired

After browning the ground beef in a 2-quart or larger pot, add the taco seasoning and follow package directions,
minus the final cooking time. Add the bell peppers, green onions, onion, tomato, pasta, water and jalapeno, if using. Cook until pasta is tender, adding more water if
necessary.
Top individual serving bowls with desired toppings.

Note: It shouldn't be very watery when finished, unlike the name "Taco Soup." But if it does come out that way, it will
taste just the same.
