TACO / ENCHILADA WHEAT SOUP

This fun recipe, from the old cook book, is one which will allow you to develop your own creative cooking abilities, because there are no set ingredient amounts to it. I suggest you begin with a cup of wheat and a cup or so of water, then go from there, adding the items to suit your own taste. Be creative!

Cook wheat until soft, set aside. In a skillet, place a small amount of oil, add salt, pepper, bouillon, garlic, and dry or fresh chopped onion to taste. Lightly brown. Stir in the wheat. Add either taco seasoning mix or enchilada sauce to taste. You may add any cooked meat if you desire. Heat to eating temperature, and serve.
