    My recipe for taco soup has been one of the most popular on my blog. My family and my readers love it.

    I have had a lot of people request the recipe in the slow cooker and I am here to deliver. The recipe is easy to make, and I think you are going to love it. 

    Making Taco Soup in the Slow Cooker:

    You all know me by now, I love using the slow cooker! I use it as often as I can, and I own more than one slow cooker due to how many times I am using them a week!

    Taco Soup is my all-time favorite soup, as well as one of my most popular recipes.

    Well, it is only time I do it in the crockpot! This recipe is a simple as it can get. I used canned ingredients. All you have to do is cook your meat, then throw everything into the slow cooker, give it a stir, and turn it on!

    Let it cook for some time, and then you have an amazing dinner with little work!

    Ingredients:

    • Ground Beef
    • Corn (canned)
    • Salsa
    • Green Chilies (canned)
    • Black Beans (canned)
    • Taco Seasoning (use my homemade taco seasoning recipe if you want!)
    • Ranch Seasoning
    • Beef Broth

    Optional for topping: sour cream, shredded cheese, fresh cilantro.

    ingredients for making slow cooker taco soup.

    Directions:

    Step One - Cook and crumble ground beef. Drain fat and place in a slow cooker.

    Can I make this Slow Cooker Taco Soup on the stove top?

    The nice thing about making this on the stove top, is you can make it all in one pot as well! Easy dinner and easy cleanup!

    We love serving our taco soup with anything we would put in tacos. Here are a few ideas.

    • Sour cream
    • Tortilla strips
    • Salsa

    • Jalapeños

    Can I freeze this soup?

    Yes, taco soup is really simple to freeze. Once it's done allow it to cool completely then add it to a large freezer bag or into individual bags are jars for single serving.

    Keep in the freezer for 3-4 months. Allow to thaw in the fridge then reheat on the stovetop or microwave.
