How To Make Slow Cooker Hearty Taco Soup:
Step 1: Ground Beef: In a skillet, cook the beef over medium heat until it is browned. After browning, let the beef rest while you drain excess grease.
Step 2: Ingredients: In the slow cooker, combine the rest of the ingredients: the beef you browned, onion, chili beans, kidney beans, corn, tomato sauce, water, diced tomatoes, green chile peppers, and taco seasoning mix.
Step 3: Cooking: Once everything is in the slow cooker, give it a good mix to combine all the ingredients. Cook on the low setting for 8 hours.
Suggestion: This taco soup is great on its own; however, you can add crushed tortilla chips/sour cream/shredded cheese to add more texture and flavor. Avocado slices also help add a nice creaminess to the soup.
