Taco Soup Recipe

Taco soup is an easy to make tummy warming treat.


Although hot soup on a cool day is an especially welcoming pleasure, this soup will be welcomed any day and in any weather.


This is an easy tortilla Mexican soup recipe that takes the flavors of our favorite tacos and puts them into a soup.



I love soup recipes because of their easy prepartion and their flexibility. For example, I have added a can of kernel corn to this recipe for extra nutrition, color and texture. If you prefer you can leave it out, or add your own favorite ingredients. Slipping in another vegetable always ups the nutrient content.

This amazing but simple taco soup recipe is one your family will love. Can't get the kids to eat their veggies? Chop them up finely and add them to this soup!

I hope you enjoy.



Ingredients:
1 to 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1/2 teaspoong garlic, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
1 - 16 ounce can tomatoes
1 - 16 ounce can tomato sauce
1 - 4 ounce can green chiles (optional)
2 cups salsa
1 can kernel corn with juices

1 - 16 ounce can kidney beans
1 package taco seasoning mix

Tips and Variations:

  • If you are really short of time, just cook the soup for 30 minutes. I find that letting it simmer for that extra half hour blends all the tastes together even better, but it still works well in just 30 minutes.
  • Substitute ground chicken for an even lower calorie soup.
  • Using reduced sodium taco seasoning helps cut down the sodium content of this recipe.
