It’s no secret that I love soup. Seriously. We eat a lot of soup. {Like this one and this one and this one and this one and this one and this one and this one. A.LOT.OT.SOUP.} Which is pretty funny actually because my husband doesn’t really consider soup a meal. I think I have him almost convinced. 🙂 Maybe a few more soups.
I love this soup, because I almost always have everything it takes to make it in the house. It is so simple and so satisfying. Just perfect. Taco in a soup. Two of my favorite foods. You have to try this one out.
The Best Slow Cooker Taco Soup Ever
Author: erin
Recipe type: soup
This soup is so simple to throw together and it is so satisfying. The crock pot does all the work and you will have a hearty dinner by then evening. Perfect.
Ingredients
- 1 lb hamburger (optional - you can leave out the meat if you want)
- 2 TB taco seasoning (homemade or packaged)
- 1 medium onion, chopped finely
- 1 clove of garlic, minced
- 1 jalapeño, minced, seeds removed.
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped (or two green)
- 1 15 oz can black beans, drained
- 1 15 oz can kidney beans, drained
- 1 15 oz can pinto or white beans, drained (optional) (sometimes I use 3 cans of tri-colored beans)
- 1 15 oz can corn
- 2 15 oz cans diced tomatos
- 1 15oz can tomato sauce
- 1 small can of diced chilies
- Fixings.
- salsa, cilantro, sour cream, cheddar cheese, corn chips, olives....basically everything you would want in a taco!
Instructions
- Brown the hamburger in a large pan. (You could put the raw hamburger directly in the crockpot, but I really like the flavor that browning the meat and onions together first, adds to the soup.)
- Add in onions, bell peppers, garlic and jalapeño and saute' for a few minutes.
- Add the meat, onions, and peppers to the crockpot.
- Add in all of the remaining ingredients to the slow cooker and stir until combined.
- Add a little water if it looks a little thick.
- Cook on low for 6 hours.
- Enjoy!
There you have it. The Best Taco Soup ever. And from your crock pot. You can make it tonight. And I hope you do. 🙂
I heart Taco Soup, but I’ve actually never made it (weird hu?) I love the idea of a slow cooker taco soup because that’s less time for me to be in the kitchen. I might have to give this a try this weekend.
Looks amazing!! You should write a book!! hehe

So I’ve never had slow cooker taco soup, but I love my slow cooker and my family does enjoy a good taco. I’ll definitely have to give this a shot next week!! Pinned it too so I don’t forget.
