The one thing that I love most about the fall and winter is that it’s soup and stew season. There is nothing more comforting and filling than a hot bowl of soup. I have several that I rotate through.
One of my favorites, however, is a taco soup recipe that my best friend gave me several years ago. It’s another one of those recipes that I have scribbled down on an old tattered piece of paper.
She made this for her daughter’s birthday get together, as it’s in the cold of February. She served soup, chips, appetizers, and cake.
It was an easy meal to feed many mouths. It’s also an easy meal to double or triple.
Ingredients Needed For Soup
- 1 lb of ground beef
- 1 can petite diced tomatoes
- 1 can corn (drained)
- 1 can of black beans (drained)
- 1 can of pinto beans (drained)
- 1/4 can of Rotel
- 1 package of taco seasoning
- 1 package of ranch mix
- 1 can chicken broth
How To Make This Taco Soup
You can make this in two ways. You can throw it together and let it simmer once you are home, or you can put it in the crockpot so you can come home to an already prepared meal.
Making on the Stovetop
Brown the ground beef, drain. Combine the ingredients and stir. Simmer until hot.
It is the ultimate dump and go recipe. It doesn’t get much easier than this!
Making in the Crockpot
Brown your ground beef ahead of time. Combine the ingredients, and stir. Let it go in the crockpot on low for about 4 hours. This works perfectly to keep it warm for a party or get-together. Perfect pot luck food!
Serve it with some tortilla chips or some corn chips. Don’t forget to add some cheese to the top, or maybe a dollop of sour cream.
