This Hearty and Healthy Taco Soup is Perfect for a Chilly Day

Imagine yourself cozying up with a big bowl of this soup. Maybe some cornbread on the side. Definitely tortilla chips mixed in there!

I thought taco soup appropriate since it is National Taco Day. This is my go-to recipe, and it was one of the first things I learned how to make when I was a newlywed. (Ages and ages ago.) Kids love it, husbands love it, and the ingredients are simple—you just dump everything in one large pot. Ready for it?

Taking only 20 minutes, this easy dinner is a family favorite! || The Butter Half #souprecipes #fallsoups #falldinnerrecipes #thebutterhalfI make this taco soup with ground turkey. It’s more nutritious and healthy, but still hearty and full of flavor. I suggest using organic ground turkey. This is locally grown, antibiotic-free, and also raised on free-range organic land.

    are the corn/black beans/chiles meant to be drained before adding them?

      Hey Kim! I never do — the juices add more to the soup! You can rinse though, if you’d like. Will work either way!
