How to switch up your Skinny Taco Soup:
Add all your favorite taco soup toppings and customize your meal just the way you like it. Mix it up or keep it plain! These variations are great ideas to get you started, just remember to be creative and enjoy your taco soup recipe!
Jalapeno – if you want to make it mild I’ve also made it with ⅓ cup chopped bell pepper instead. Green chilies – Similar flavors to jalapeno, but more mild. Dry ranch dressing mix – Most dry ranch packets include flavors from onion powder, onion flakes, dill, parsley, garlic powder, salt, pepper and dried chives. So, it will add a lot of flavor to your soup if you choose to add it. Canned black beans and pinto beans – When I don’t have pinto beans I use great northern beans. Or you could just use 2 cans of black beans.
The Recipe Critic Pro Tip:
Add an extra packet of taco seasoning to make it extra taco-y! Do not add the water from the tomato soup can if you are like me and enjoy your soup a little thicker. If you want it more runny, add the water. Be sure to drain and rinse beans so soup isn’t overly salty. When I cook soups with ground turkey, I like to give it an extra flavor and color boost by adding the spices before I add the turkey to the rest of the soup ingredients. First, I cook the turkey and diced onions in a large skillet until done, breaking it up with a fork to make sure there are no large clumps of meat. Then I sprinkle the meat mixture with my spices and then cook and stir for another three to four minutes. The chili powder, paprika, and black pepper especially work to give the meat a nice, rich color so you can fake out the family—they’ll never guess that it’s turkey instead of beef!
Serve with: Avocado, sour cream, tortilla strips, lime wedges, Guacamole, chopped cilantro, salsa, rice, shredded mexican cheese, diced green or white onions, Diced green or white onions, Jalapeños Swap out: ground turkey for ground beef – use lean ground beef for best results. I go for 85% or 90% Angus. Slow cooker? Yes! To make your skinny taco soup in the Crock Pot just brown the onions and beef, and then garlic, drain fat and add mixture to the slow cooker. Then add tomatoes, broth, tomato sauce and spices. Cover and cook on low heat 5 – 6 hours. Stir in corn and beans and heat through (then add cilantro and lime if using). Vegetarian option: If you wanted to make it vegetarian you could use lentils or another can of beans.
Storing Taco Soup:
To freeze, transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze. To reheat, thaw overnight in the refrigerator then reheat on the stove or microwave. I recommend freezing this soup in jars or individual containers so it’s easy to thaw out exactly how much you need. When reheating, too thin it out simply add more broth or water.
