Fall is here to stay and it’s time to bust out the slow cooker and make the easiest (and if I’m being really honest…) the only soup I make! I snarfed this recipe from my mom years ago and I always double it up to take to Soup Sundays at our church. All it requires is a bit of time to ground the beef and a can opener!
Taco Soup
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can dark red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can crushed tomatoes
- 1 can corn, drained
- 1 quart vegetable juice (I use V8 juice)
- 1 package taco seasoning
Just fry a package of ground beef , rinse the beans, drain the corn, and add all canned items to the crock pot with the juice and taco seasoning with the cooked ground beef – voila! Simmer on low all day or on high for the afternoon. Easy peasy, just the way I like it!

Looks delicious! We make a slightly different variation of taco soup, I may have to try this one out to shake things up a bit :).

What do you put in your taco soup? Maybe I need to shake mine up!
I use 1lb hamburger, 1 lb sausage, onion (cooked with the meat) 2 Rotel, corn, can green chilies, Taco seasoning, ranch seasoning and kidney beans :). It's Lance's favorite meal and SO EASY!
