Ingredients: For Taco Soup 1 lb ground meat (beef, turkey, or chicken) 1 medium onion, diced 4 cloves garlic, minced 28 oz canned crushed tomatoes 4 oz mild green chiles 5 oz corn kernels, canned 2½ tbsp taco seasoning 16 oz kidney beans 2 cups chicken broth 3 tbsp oil Black pepper powder, to taste Salt, to taste Toppings Sour cream Lime wedges Cheddar cheese, shredded Tortilla chips Green onion, chopped Cilantro leaves, chopped Recipe Notes: Here are some helpful tips to make your Taco Soup just right every time: 1. Use Lean Ground Meat: I recommend using lean ground turkey, chicken, or beef to keep the soup lighter and healthier without losing any flavor. Lean meat also helps avoid a greasy broth. If you prefer a fattier cut for its richness, make sure to drain the excess grease after cooking it with onions and garlic. This keeps the broth clean and flavorful while improving the overall texture of the soup. 2. Rinse Canned Beans and Corn: If you’re using canned beans and corn, don’t skip rinsing them under cold water. This step removes extra sodium from the canning liquid and gives your soup a fresher taste. If you have more time, you can use dried beans instead. Just soak them overnight and cook them until tender. While it takes a bit longer, it brings an extra layer of freshness to the soup. 3. Adjust the Broth Consistency: If your soup feels too thick, add a little water or broth and stir until it reaches the consistency you like. If it’s too thin, let it simmer uncovered for a bit longer to reduce the liquid. This not only thickens the soup but also makes the flavors more intense. Just remember to stir occasionally so it doesn’t burn or get too thick. 4. Customize Beans and Vegetables: Feel free to switch things up with the beans and veggies! I like keeping it simple, but you can add kidney beans, black beans, or cannellini beans for variety. For extra nutrition and flavor, toss in vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, spinach, or even carrots. The more you add, the heartier and more nutritious your soup will be. 5. Season to Taste: Taco seasoning can vary in salt and spice levels, so taste the soup as it cooks and adjust the seasoning as needed. Making your own taco seasoning is a great way to control the ingredients and customize the flavor. If you like extra heat, add some crushed red pepper flakes, fresh chili slices, or a dash of hot sauce. For a milder soup, use a reduced-sodium taco seasoning or balance the flavors with a little sugar or lime juice. 6. Make It Dairy-Free: For a dairy-free option, skip the sour cream and cheese toppings. Instead, try avocado slices, fresh herbs, or a dollop of dairy-free yogurt for creaminess. 7. Other Cooking Methods: If you want to make this soup in a slow cooker or Instant Pot, I’ve included detailed instructions below. Feel free to check them out if those methods work better for you!
