Easy Taco Soup

Soup season is in full swing at our house and boy do I love it. I love the variety of soups and this new recipe is no exception. This slow cooker Easy Taco Soup recipe is a sure winner. It's one of our families fall favorites and it's quick and easy. A vegetarian spin on classic taco soup. What's even better?! It's a slow cooker recipe! Yes please! This recipe is prepared in less than ten minutes, and then you get to let the slow cooker do the work. The best kind of weekday recipe.

Quick and Easy Slow Cooker Taco Soup

Slow cooker recipes are some of my all time favorites, especially in the fall and winter. This recipe is so quick and easy. It is a low prep meal that lets the slow cooker do all the work. Similar to an 8 can slow cooker taco soup, this soup is easy to dump and go. Because of the slow cooker, you can resume all your favorite fall activities while still having a delicious warm meal at the end of the day.

A Vegetarian Style Easy Taco Soup

Can taco soup be vegetarian style? Absolutely! I love substituting meat for various types of beans and this no exception! This recipe does not use meat. Instead I use black beans, kidney beans, and great northern beans. You still get the hearty taste of taco soup you love. You can certainly add in your favorite ground beef or chicken but we love the meatless spin on this classic recipe.

How to Make Slow Cooker Easy Taco Soup

Making this Easy Taco Soup is well...easy!

In a large crockpot, dump in your favorite red salsa, great northern beans, black beans, kidney beans, canned corn, diced tomatoes, and rotel. Mix all together.

Next add in cumin, and chicken broth.

Cook in your slow cooker for 4-6 hours on low.

Serve with your favorite taco toppings:

• Cheddar cheese
• Sour cream
• Tortilla chips
• Green onion

I also love to serve this soup with our homemade cornbread recipe. This recipe is quick and easy as well and can be made in less than 30 minutes before serving dinner! Make it a full meal and end with our favorite fall cookie, Soft and Chewy Pumpkin Snickerdoodles.

Tips and Tricks

One of my all time favorite parts about this taco soup recipe is how you can adjust the level of spice. If you like things on the hotter side, make sure to use medium to hot salsa. If you say "no way" to spice, make sure to use mild salsa. You can even replace the rotel with a simple can of diced tomatoes. Remember, if you do this, the flavor may change mildly.
