Full of Tex-Mex flavor, this easy Taco Soup is one of my favorite soup recipes. Top with cheese, sour cream, and pickled jalapenos and you have a great meal for a cold night.
Easy To Make
Made mostly with pantry ingredients, this soup is fabulously easy to make and it only needs to simmer for 20 minutes. In addition to ground beef, onion, jalapeno peppers, and garlic, there’s also a packet of ranch seasoning and a packet of taco seasoning, both of which add tons of flavor.
Other ingredients include Rotel tomatoes, chili beans, black beans, creamed corn, and whole kernel corn. Besides browning the ground beef, this is pretty much a dump and go recipe. Don’t be intimidated by the long list of ingredients. It doesn’t take long at all to add them to the pot.
Easily Adaptable
You can easily adapt this recipe based on what you have on hand and your preferences. Ground turkey can be used instead of ground beef. If you don’t want to use all three types of beans, just double up on one of them.
Storage
Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for 4 to 5 days and reheated in the microwave. It can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
Is This Dish Spicy?
If you use “Hot” taco seasoning, “Hot” Rotel tomatoes, and “Hot” Chili Beans, this soup will have a fair amount of heat. To add more, add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper and serve with Cholulu hot sauce.
