Becca's Taco Soup Reviews
I have made this recipe for years but a little different. We brown the meat with onions..drain. Then to a pot add the meat, 2 can of red kid beans, 2 small cans of tomato sauce, 1 can (use kid bean can) of water, and 1 pk of Taco Seasoning.Then after bringing to a boil and simmering for 15 minutes it is done. Add soup to a bowl then top with Frito corn chips, cheese, and sour cream.My DH is military and when he was in Korea he made this and EVERYONE loved it. My kids love it also and want it every night
Dee-lish, super simple and quicker than chili. My tweaks: Needed entire packet of taco seasoning and added a can of black beans. Topped with crushed tortilla chips, cheddar cheese, sour cream and green onions.
This soup was excellent - I left out the corn, beans, and onion (picky family) but it still turned out great. I also chopped a fresh tomato and added it, and that added a little more substance to the soup without the other ingredients. This is a great easy soup to make at night when you dont want to spend a ton of time cooking We eat it with cheese melted on top, sour cream, and avocado slices, with tortilla chips and it is SO yummy
This was sooo yummy I did change a little though. Instead of tomatoe juice I used beef broth and instead of tomatoe sauce I used canned crushed tomatoes.Really really good Thanks for sharing
I guess if you cant make up your mind about whether to have chili or tacos, you can just have both with this recipe It wouldnt have been nearly as good if I hadnt added a tablespoon of cayenne pepper. Next time I think I will add a can of green chiles and some diced tomatoes as well. The cheese is a must.
I made this for a job potluck and it was a hit. Its requested quite often. This was just spicy enough for me. A person who doesnt like real spicy foods.
This recipe was ok but bland. Do add the whole taco seasoning packet and extras, ie. sour cream, chips, avacado etc. My big gripe with this recipe is its lack of detail. i.e. canned corn (drained or undrained) etc.
This soup was ok, but not great. I felt it was too "soupy" and would use less tomato juice next time. I also used the entire packet of taco seasoning. Next time I would also probably use chili beans instead of kidney beans. It just didnt have enough kick. Cheese and sour cream on top to serve is a must.
It is very good ..I added diced tomatoes and spicy hot sauce..delicious
This is our go-to recipe for when my b/fs 11yo daughter is over. Its always a hit. And thats saying a lot. We just throw a little mexi-cheese & sour cream on top, and have it with corn chips. Yummy
This was so easy and quick to prepare It was a huge hit. I added more meat (1/2 lb), swapped tomatoes with chilis for tomato sauce and added a strong cup of beef broth. I served this with grated quesadilla cheese, sour cream and fried tortilla strips. And of course, a margarita Thank you Becca
This was ok...husband rate 2.5 but son really liked it, so I gave it a three. Followed recipe exactly. I thought it was somewhat bland and not very special. Probably will not make again.
So easy and really good. I did add a touch of sugar and cinnamon.
Becca You ROCK This soup is awesome I did change it a bit from some of the reviews but I feel sure that even if it is prepared just as you have it that it would be just perfect. The changes I made were to add beef broth instead of the tomato sauce and I pureed canned tomatoes instead of tomato juice so it would have a heartier consistency. I also added 1/2 the taco mis to the burger when I browned it and then used the remaining as your recipe instructs. Then I made a couple of servings of white rice and added it in at the end. So it was quite a bit thicker than your recipe would make, Im sure but we all ate it until we were about to pop. Thank you I am sure I will make this alot. By the way its really easy and you would generally have all of this stuff on hand in a typical kitchen anyway which is MAJOR bonus points for me. I HATE having to prepare and shop especially for a recipe. BECCA ROCKS
I loved this soup It was very easy to make and quick. I added a pinch of cumin. Next time I am going to try green chiles and cayenne pepper. I might add another bean too Thanks Becca
Very good soup. Followed to a T, until I realized I forgot the onions and had to do a quick saute on some. And add into the soup. I doubled the recipe as I do most recipes because of my family size. Recipe was simple and nice, a very familiar tasting recipe Ive had before, just minus the fact of no stewed tomatoes. I will say it could used a little more umph to it. Spiked with either more taco seasoning or seasoned stewed tomatoes or rather a can of Rotel. But over all it was nice.
This was YUMMY I also changed a few things. Overall delish I used a 15 onz can of tomatoe sauce and a 14 onz can of chicken broth and yummm 1 Can corn and 1 can Kidney beans.
This is one of my favorite soups of all time. The changes I made were adding a can of diced green chillies, 10 or so shakes of green tobasco sauce, a can of black beans, some chili powder, cumin and added another package of taco seasoning.
Very easy and very filling. I added black beans and a pepper. I also made rice and put the rice in the bowl first and then soup on top, kinda like the do at Qdoba and chipotle. The only thing i will look to change is to add more flavor, not sure if i will use a differ taco seasoning pack or use more spices.
Yum Skipped the corn-just dont care for it. Added other veggies-garlic, celery, carrots, peppers and shredded cabbage and another can of beans (black). Like using the tomato juice. Served over tortilla chips and topped with shredded cheese.
Pretty much chili. My wife wasnt too excited after trying it.
This soup is really good and an excellent, kid-friendly, quick supper. I made it just like the recipe says and it turned out great. Topping it with shredded cheddar and sour cream is a must...it just really blends the flavors and kicks it up
We liked this one, however we added some rice mixed with lime and cilantro at the bottom which made the good delicious.
This was a very good basic recipe. The instructions were a tad vague, but most people should be able to figure it out. I added some salt, pepper, and chili powder to the meat and onions. I also added the full packet of taco seasoning mix. To the toppings I added a bottle of hot sauce, in case someone wanted it a bit spicier. It is very easy to customize. I will definitely make this again
I veganized this recipe:) Instead of ground beef, I used Yves veggie ground round. I added 1/2 green pepper, diced & 1 can of black beans as well.....I didnt drain either beans or the corn. Just open the cans & dump in the pot. Ladle soup into a bowl & crush some tortillas on top. This is delicious
Im a grad student with very limited time and funds, so this recipe is a godsend very inexpensive and tastes great. it took no time at all and will last me all week
I substituted the ground beef with ground turkey to make this healthier, and man was it good I changed a few other things. (not to be a jerk, but because Im out of a few ingredients) I used 1 can of reduced sodium condensed tomato soup, 1 8oz can of tomato sauce, 1 can of Rotel with chilies, and added 2 minced garlic cloves. The Rotel didnt make it spicy enough for us (my family loves hot food) so I also added about a tsp of hot sauce. Yum I will definitely be making this again and again :)
I added a can of diced tomatoes, green chilis and used the entire package of taco seasoning. I decreased the amount of tomato soup to 2 cups.
A friend of mine turned me on to this recipe, which Ive made many times. Weve always added a packet of Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix. I think it really makes a difference.
Great taste and easy to make
Good base I dont use juice any more so just use lg can of tomato sauce and added some cumin and more taco seasoning. Nice and thick Enjoyed
I gave this only 2 stars as I think its NOT a very good taco soup. BUT, its a great chili I made as listed and it needed ALOT more spicy/mexican flavoring for it to be more of a TACO SOUP. I served this with shredded cheese, sour cream and served this over Fritos. Good as a chili, though not my FAV chili recipe. I will not make this again.
Good flavor, but could use more spice. My husband thinks of it as chili.
What a GREAT soup for a cold night I have to say, I kicked it up quite a bit with about a tablespoon of Cayenne pepper, tobasco sauce, red pepper flakes, and a can of green chiles and some jalapenos. I also used the whole packet of taco seasoning. I took someone elses recommendation and substituted some of the tomato juice with tomato soup (I had extra in the pantry). Served with multigrain tostitos. My husband pretty much ate it like a dip with chips... either way, we both LOVED it. Thanks for the great recipe
I made this for my family and they absolutely love it Ive even given the recipe to a few friends and their families loved it too. Its a great recipe and it is easy to make. Kid friendly too.
Super easy is right I just threw in what I had, a can of tom. sauce, chicken broth, sm. can of paste, can of kidney & black beans, ground beef and onion, and olives Cant forget the olives Topped with jalepeno slices, sharp cheddar & sour cream. Ten mins. done. Thanks for all the base alternatives reviewers :)
Great I added some extra tomato sauce, extra cayenne pepper, and almost the entire taco seasoning packet. I added a cup of beef stock for every serving to make it more "soupy." I used black beans instead of kidney beans and V-8 for the tomato juice. I also added some fajita seasoning, garlic, and cayenne pepper to the meat while it was browning. It gave the meat some pep. My husband absolutely loved it
This was easy and very tasty. I didnt realize that it only called for half of the taco seasoning packet, and I used the entire packet - I think it definitely needs the entire packet.
I made this with a full package of taco seasoning, garlic and added hot sauce very tasty Next time ill try it with spicy tomato juice.
This is a great soup but I doctored it up a bit... I also added 1 packet of RANCH DRESSING and a small can of GREEN CHILIES YUMMMMY
My family liked this. I used V8 instead of tomato juice (its what I had) and had grated cheddar and sour cream on the table for toppings for people who wanted them.
This soup was fantastic easy to make, ingredients were cheap, and super tasty
I make mine a bit different. I use the same amount of beef and onion, then add 1 can of pinto beans, 1 can of kidney beans, 2 cans of diced tomatoes with green chiles (Rotel), 1 package of taco seasoning mix, 1 package Ranch dressing mix, 1 cup water and a whole package of frozen corn. It takes minutes to come together and its great served over tortilla chips (baked or regular) topped with cheddar cheese.
This was an AWESOME soup...instead of kidney beans (I was out) I used black beans, added diced red and green peppers, and since I can, I used 1/4 a pint of our hot salsa, then topped with a taco and shredded cheddar cheese. I did look at the other reviews and found adding a full package of taco seasoning was a good idea. Next time, Ill use a 1/2 pint of the salsa to make the soup spicier. AWESOME recipe
Very quick but great
Yummy
I was a little disappointed in this recipe. It tasted more like chili than tacos. For chili it was good but was missing the taco flavor that I was hopeing for. It had a big tomato flavor to it. I added the whole packet of taco seasoning and more cumin to get a more taco flavor but it didnt work. I dont know if beef broth along with some tomato juice would help or not. The cheese, chips and sour cream on top was a big plus. I may try again but with definate changes.
I used chili beans instead of kidney and also added a can of northen beans. I too added a dash of cumin as well as a chopped green bell pepper. The funny thing is, although this recipe has almost completely different ingrediants, the taste was similar to a chili recipe I have always owned/used. So yes, this is a good soup, but since it tasted so much like one I have always made...thus, I was not pleasantly surprised. IT IS STILL A GOOD SOUP but it tastes so much like one I already own. To others: this recipe is so easy, its worth a try and very adjustable to your tastes. Thanks Becca
This is one of my absolute favorite recipes. It is a delicious and easy one-pot-wonder I like to add one envelope of dry ranch dressing mix as well. Top with sour cream, cheese, and crushed tortilla or corn chips and it is a fabulous meal
I thought this was very good. I made substitutions based upon what I had on hand. Instead of the tomato sauce, I used about 6 oz of tomato paste. I also added a can of black beans and blackeye peas. Based on another reviewers suggestion I added the entire package of taco seasoning. It was really excellent.
The only change I made was adding the entire package of taco seasoning instead of half. We really liked it I served it with tortilla chips, shredded cheese and sour cream. Very easy to make.
Shockingly good. My dad has been pushing me for awhile to find a tco soup recipe. But I dont like onions or corn in soup so I have been hesitant. I made this tonight using two cups of tomatoe juice and two cups (1 can) of beef broth. I also added a few TBSP of Southwestern Seasoning. We served it by plopping some light sour cream in it, some Mexican blend shredded cheese, stirring it then crunching up a handful of tostitoes. I was shocked by how good it was. Everyone was. I also made cornbread muffins which were perfect to soak up some extra sauce with. It was thin...but thats how I like my soup. I cut the onions big so I could pick them out and then I just ate the corn in it...it was too good to pick out. Great suprise recipe. Thanks Becca...
I made this, with leftover taco meat that no one felt like facing from yesterday.. I used white beans because that was all I had, and I looked up homemade taco seasonings and added some spices from that along with more water to stretch it. It was so yummy
Yum. I tweaked the recipe just a bit. I only put in 2 cups of tomato juice and instead put about 12 ounces of tomato sauce and some Mexican style diced tomatoes in. I also put about 3/4 of the taco seasoning in. Top it off with Mexi style cheese and some sour cream. . . YUM
I got this recipe from my exboyfriend, and I was worried Id never find it again Its almsost identical to this one, except without the onion or the beans. I absolutely love this soup we put tortillas in the bowl, ladle soup over them, put cheese and sour cream on top of that. HEAVENLY Thanks becca, for helping me rediscover one of my favorite foods
I made this last night for my grease craving, fatty burger loving, french fry consuming family... and believe it or not they loved it which surprised me. Even my brothers who insist on dishes such as burgers with only cheese, meat only tacos, and no vegetables whatsoever LOVED IT. I doubled the recipe and added two taco seasonings and also added a packet of dry ranch dressing mix which was just what the soup needed. If youre not doubling, then I suggest only using half of the ranch or it can get tangy. Also, while browning the meat with the onions I added one packet of the taco seasoning just so it could cook into the meat right away instead of soaking into it overnight. Delish
Exactly what I wanted I added hot and spicy taco seasoning and it made it so much better
I use the whole can of tomato juice so I dont have left overs. I also add more taco seasoning, some to the meat and some to the soup. Its my favorite soup recipe
Very good recipe, thank you. I cut this recipe in half and served with Golden Sweet Cornbread from this site and got rave reviews from my husband. I will make this again, great for a crowd if you want to make it as is or double it. I also added some chopped zucchini so it had something green in it.
Ive made this soup so many times and I keep changing it. My favorite one so far is...substitute a can of hominy for the corn, add some jalapeno slices (from a jar) and use crushed or stewed tomatoes. Garnish w/ cheese.
One of my families favorites. I substitute ground turkey for ground beef to save on calories/fat. I also dont use the onion (I dont care for them) and it still turns out phenomenal. Using turkey in this recipe (1.4 lbs) Ive calculated the nutrition per serving of 1 cup to be: 226 calories, 5 grams fat, 9 fiber and 4 points (for you WW gals). You definitely need to try this
The soup was a little too thick for my liking. I added water and it seemed to weaken the taste. I will use the entire package of taco seasoning next time with about 2 cups water. This was very good.
I love this soup I serve it with crushed up tortilla chips on top and some shredded cheese. Excelent.(those of us who like spicy foods will want to add our favorite hot sauce to the mix)
This recipie has always been a hit for me whenever I try it. The best thing is that it tastes even better the second or third day-- if theres any left
This recipe was awesome, and easy I used everything, but left out the onion, and used less tomato sauce and more stewed tomatoes. It was a hit It got eaten more than anything else, and my aunt even had 2 bowls of it
This recipe was really good The only variation I made was that I added extra corn just because I love corn. I also topped the bowls with just a little but of mexican shredded cheese. YUM.
I use this recipe all the time now, its been years. Its a great base, though I do change it to shredded chicken instead of hamburger. I boil the chicken with lime, cilantro and sea salt. I also use black beans instead of kidney, but everything else is the same I love love this soup
So easy and fast Great on a chilly day.
I used chili beans instead of kidney and also added a can of northen beans. I too added a dash of cumin as well as a chopped green bell pepper. The funny thing is, although this recipe has almost completely different ingrediants, the taste was similar to a chili recipe I have always owned/used. So yes, this is a good soup, but since it tasted so much like one I have always made...thus, I was not pleasantly surprised. IT IS STILL A GOOD SOUP but it tastes so much like one I already own. To others: this recipe is so easy, its worth a try and very adjustable to your tastes. Thanks Becca
This was really good
Loved It
This is very much a favorite recipe at our house - especially during the winter months. I do double the taco seasoning & buy the spicy flavor too. The spicier the better at our house.
Everyone really likes it.....
We love this recipe I do it with either chicken or beef, depending on my mood. I use the full packet of taco seasoning and prefer chili beans, which add a nice kick. I also use vegetable juice instead of tomato juice (which happened by accident because hubby bought the wrong one) and love the flavor. Its a great base recipe to tweak to your own tastes and preferences.
My family, which includes a 4 year old and a 9 year old, LOVED it I didnt have tomato juice, so I used a combo of tomato sauce and chicken broth in equal parts. It turned out great.....Ill be making again soon
My husband and I LOVE this soup I usually use 1 1/2 pounds of extra lean ground sirloin and mexi corn. When its ready to serve, I also offer shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream and plain Doritos. Awesome stuff Thanks, Becca
WONDERFUL soup And it is filling, which was very surprising Definitely recommend if you are on a tight budget and tight time. We were eating 1/2 an hour after starting to make it. Great for families
This was good and easy to make. I did change up the recipe a bit. I used 33 ounces of V8 and a whole pack of taco seasoning. I also used onion powder instead of onions. I followed the rest of the recipe as written. I cooked this in my crockpot instead of on the stove. This had a nice flavor to it. I topped ours with cheddar cheese.
Yummo My new favourite soup So quick and easy and super delish too
We love this soup, so favorful
I loved this soup Just what I needed on this cold day I found 1/2 pkt. taco seasoning was just right. I was a little worried about what some said about the tomato juice so I only used two cups and two cups of water with a bouillon cube and its terrific Thanks
This was very easy to make, and overall was okay. It was, however, too sweet and bland.
Good recpie to build upon I mad a few adjustments and made enough soup for 2 nights in a row. family raved.
Yummy
Like many other reviewers, I used V8 instead of the tomato juice and black beans instead of kidney beans. I also added a little cayenne pepper and garlic to give it some kick. Instead of ground beef, I used MorningStar veggie crumbles since I am vegetarian. The soup (more like a stew or a chili) is absolutely delicious and was insanely easy to prepare. Yum
I have made this several times now. I am so pleased with how this tastes and how easy it is. Everyone in my family loves it
Easy recipe I added a can of black beans too
Made this recipe tonight and added the entire packet of taco seasoning. Other than that, prepared as directed. We loved it Will definitely make again. Only took us 15 minutes to make. Quick, yummy dinner. Could easily be a slow cooker meal.
Love this-easy and good but with a tweak or 2. I use 4 cups of V-8 juice to kick it up a little-also omit kidney beans and use black beans instead. Top with corn chips and sour cream and shredded Mexican cheese.
This is an easy, delicious soup My family loves it
I made this soup the other day and it was awesome I did add a few things that really made it even better. I used the whole package of taco seasoning, 1 15oz can of black beans, a few dashes of cayenne pepper, and a can of Rotel. I topped the finished soup with shredded cheddar cheese, soup cream, and tortilla strips So awesome
In the cooler months, we fix this at least once every two weeks and serve it with sour cream. ITS A MAJOR HIT So easy, fast, delicious Even great for camping
Delicious
Very good and quick. Made it exactly as stated. For us, it needs a little bit more spice and salt but still its a great recipe
This was very good. It ends up like a chili. I added a full packet of Taco seasoning just as others have done. We served it with cheddar cheese and lime tortilla chips. Its quite filling.
I used black beans in medium sauce, 3 cans of diced tomatoes instead of the tomato juice and the entire package of taco seasoning. I did drain the corn, but not the tomatoes. It was very easy and delicious I will definitely make it again.
Very good. I took some of the advice offered here and used half tomato juice and half beef broth. Served with sour cream and Fritos (for the kids). They loved it
One word....YUM
Good recipe. You can add and or remove ingredients to your taste. Or just fine as it is. I prefer to add a bit of hot sauce. Sour cream corn chips and cheddar cheese are must haves for a topping. Cheers.
