Taco Soup . . . this hearty and delicious soup is my go-to recipe for hectic evenings. It can be whipped up in just minutes, and everyone loves it!
This soup is a staple at our house during the long winter months. I like to serve it with cornbread, soft pretzels, or cornmeal rolls.

Will canned corn work or does it need to be frozen?
Yes, you can use canned corn if you prefer. 🙂
Great soup. My second time making it in my crockpot. I had made extra meat for our tacos so used that and added the rest of the ingredients. Added a little more taco seasoning and it was awesome.
My husband does not like Ranch anyting can I leave the ranch dressing mix off?
What? Is he crazy? Just kidding! Yes, you can omit the ranch dressing mix. You could just add some extra garlic or onion if you want, or just use the taco seasoning. I made it that way for years, and it was still tasty!
This is a great recipe! So good!!
Delicious recipe! I added the whole package of ranch dressing mix and extra beans and corn. Garnished with plain Greek yogurt and avocado.
Love this recipe!!
It’s in my crockpot now, make some sweet corn muffins to go with it.
How bout this recipe in a crock pot?
Great recipe. I added rotisserie chicken instead of beef and garnished with cilantro. 👌
I bet that was a tasty change! I’ll have to try it with the chicken. And of course you can’t go wrong with fresh cilantro!
Great recipe! Add a little cilantro for a garnish! 👌
How many does this recipe feed?
It serves 8-10.
It says “bring to a boil” but how much water are we suppose to add?
You don’t add any water, you just bring the soup to a boil. 🙂
So delicious! And genius idea adding extra tomatoes, beans, and corn so we can have leftovers the next day. Thanks for that tip!
With three hungry boys to feed, I need to stretch things as far as I can! 😉
Taco Soup is one of my favorite go to recipes in a pinch! I love the added flavor to this recipe!
