Craving a warm, comforting dinner tonight? This zesty taco soup only requires about 15 minutes of hands-on time. Your slow cooker will do the rest!
We love this taco soup because it's more like a hearty chili, spiced up with rich Mexican flavors from chipotle peppers, green chiles, chili powder, and other warm spices. Of course, if you want yours a little less spicy, just adjust accordingly.
The main ingredient in this recipe is ground beef, but you could easily use ground chicken or turkey instead if you prefer. It's also loaded with healthy veggies like zucchini, bell peppers, tomatoes, onions, and garlic. You could also add kale, mushrooms, cauliflower, or sweet potatoes in here too!
Start by sauteing the onions and garlic on the stovetop, then add the ground beef and cook until browned. Add the meat to your slow cooker and top with the veggies and spices, then cover with salt-free stock (preferably homemade bone broth!) and give it a good stir. Cover and set on low for eight hours.
Serve your taco soup with lime wedges. You can also garnish with jalapeño slices, cilantro, and/or avocado. Grab a spoon and dig in!
