Here are two really easy and cheap meals.

Beef Taco Skillet

1 can (10  oz) condensed tomato soup
1/2 cup salsa ( I used chunky)
1/2 cup water
6 flour tortillas (6 inch) cut into 1 inch pieces
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1. Cook beef in skillet over medium-high heat until well browned, stirring often to separate meat. Pour off fat.
2. Stir soup , salsa, water and tortillas in skillet and heat to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Cook 5 min. Stir. Top with cheese.

French Onion Burgers-(no grilling)

1 lb. ground beef
1 can (10 oz) condensed french onion soup
4 slices of cheese
hamburger buns

1. Shape beef into 4 burgers
2. Heat skillet over medium-high heat. Add burgers and cook until well browned on both sides. Remove burgers from skillet. Pour off fat.
3. Stir soup in skillet and heat to a boil. Return burgers to skillet. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook 5 min. or until burgers are cooked through. Top burgers with cheese and cook until cheese melts. Serve burgers on buns with soup mixture for dipping.
