Cooking With The Mommy-Files – Taco Soup

OK, so this isn’t a genuine Mexican dish, but I would classify this recipe under the Mexican Recipe Category.  There have been a few days this month where we had Mexican food leftovers, went on a date, or had food from the Taco Truck.  So, I’m filling in a few of my recipes with some of my own favorite Mexican dishes.  Taco Soup is easy to make and tasty!

    I make a similar recipe but with ground turkey. It a meal like this with the seasonings the family doesn’t know the difference. My husband is a beef man but I try to make things a little healthier so he never gets straight gr beef anymore. I split a lb of turkey with beef and freeze that way so it is ready to go. BTW, my girls beg for this soup and they are 3 & 4 years old.

    I’m a vegetarian so I made this replacing the ground beef with soy crumbles and it was great. Thanks for the recipe

    I would like this a little thicker (and without the corn) especially on those cold nights. Yummy… more great recipes.

    This sounds really good. I love tacos but never thought of them as soup! If you ever remodel your site, I’d like to suggest a way to print them. I’m going to copy and paste, but it would be great to have a “print” option for the recipe on the page. Thanks!

    Yummy! I love any sort of Mexican soup!!!! I make one with the black bean soup stock from Trader Joe’s and add tons of veggies, chicken, and drained rotel tomatoes. Cheese and sour cream on top. It’s amazing!

    I am making this for dinner, but I am doing regular corn instead of creamed, and I am adding black beans along with the kidney beans. Hope it turns out :)
