Easy Taco Soup

Easy Taco Soup – a hearty and comforting taco flavored soup that is ready in minutes. Top with your favorite toppings to make it even better!

I am pretty sure that if you have visited this site before, you know that I like Mexican food. It can be Mexican Rice Skillet that is ready in no time. Or it could be enchiladas. Enchiladas are one of my family’s favorite things, and Homemade Enchilada Sauce makes them even better. So this taco soup should come as no surprise.

One thing you know about me is I like easy dinners. If they can be made in one pan, that is even better. And this easy taco soup fits the bill for both. It is ready in less than 30 minutes, and all you need is one pan to make it in. It is thick and hearty, but still pretty good for you.

What You’ll Need

  • Oil
  • Ground Beef or Ground Turkey
  • Onion
  • Garlic
  • Taco Seasoning
  • All-Purpose Flour
  • Tomato Sauce
  • Diced Tomatoes with Green Chiles
  • Enchilada Sauce
  • Corn
  • Beans
  • Chicken Broth

What type of beans you use is entirely up to you! Black Beans and Pinto beans are our favorite, but you can use whatever kind you normally like and have on hand.

And you can even make your own Homemade Taco Seasoning if you are out or want to just cut down on the sodium and control the spices.

How To Make Taco Soup

Be sure to scroll to the bottom of the post for the FULL PRINTABLE recipe card.

  1. In a large pot heat oil over medium high heat. Add ground meat and onions, break apart and cook until browned and onions are soft. Add garlic, and cook for about 1 minute, until you can just start to smell it.
  2. Stir in taco seasoning and flour and cook for about 2 minutes. You want to cook and stir long enough to make sure there are no white streaks remaining from the flour.
  3. Add tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, enchilada sauce, corn kernels, beans and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer, and cook for 20 minutes.
  4. Serve topped with favorite taco toppings.

What Goes With Taco Soup

One of the best parts of soup is adding toppings to it, or having bread to dip in it. My favorite cornbread recipe is great to serve with taco soup if you want to sop up the last bit of soup in the bottom of the bowl. And you can go crazy with the toppings!

  • Sour Cream
  • Cheese
  • Corn Chips
  • Cilantro
  • Avocado
  • Jalapeno Sliced
  • Chopped Onions
