Taco Soup w Bacon and Cactus

[buffy871]

1. Cook hamburger with onion, garlic, jalapenos, and cactus. Drain.
2. Cook bacon in sauce pan, add to hamburger mixture. Not, too crispy, it should still be fatty-white.
3. In large stockpan, combine all ingredients and cook for 1 hour, or until potatoes and carrots are tender. Stir occasionally. Add Tabasco and lime juice to taste. Great with buttered cornbread

This recipe piqued my interest. We've eaten cactus from a jar. It reminds me of a mild green chili. Thanks for sharing!
