Easy Taco Soup

Now people. Yesterday when I said it wasn’t Chili… I meant, it ain’t chili! ;-) It’s Taco Soup! Yum!
Quite simply the easiest and most delicious Taco Soup at that. While the weather down here in South Texas isn’t exactly cold, it’s definitely that time of the year, time to start working the crockpot and making yummy soups and stews. So here you have it:
Today’s Mouthwatering Monday recipe is:


Taco Soup

  • 1.5 lbs. lean ground beef
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 (10 oz) cans ro-tel tomatoes with diced green chilies
  • 1 (15 oz) can black beans
  • 1 (15 oz) can kidney beans
  • 1 (15 oz) can pinto beans
  • 1 (15 oz) can corn
  • 6 oz beer (dark is best, but you can use whatever)

For the Taco Seasoning, you can use 1 package or make your own like I do. It’s super easy so come on let’s do it!

  • 2 tsp.salt
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 2 1/4 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 1/4 tsp garlic powder

Mix all the spices together and set aside.

  1. In a medium pan on the stove brown your ground beef with 1/2 of your taco seasoning mix.
  2. chop onion and dump into crockpot
  3. Open the cans of yummies
  4. Dump all cans into the crockpot, do not drain
  5. pour 6 oz. beer into the crockpot
  6. add the remaining taco seasoning
  7. mix in browned beef
  8. stir well
  9. Cook on high for 6 hours or low for 8 hours, whatever time works for you
  10. serve with crushed chips and topped with cheese
  11. prepare for your family and friends to kiss your feet and offer you gifts.

okay, maybe that last bit is a bit overboard but seriously y’all.. it is delicious!

And like I promised y’all. Super Easy.

    I started thinking about making Taco Soup this week, since it’s been cold and all, but now it’s back in the 70s! Your recipe looks Yum-O, I have one that’s pretty similar, minus the onions and all the beans. Girl you know I don’t do veggies ;-)

    Mine doesn’t have black beans…I use green beans and hominy instead. Super tasty either way!

    I’m wondering if I would need to substitute something for the beans if I took them out? I don’t do legumes. Not no how. And, how hot is this?
