Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (browned)
  • 2 Tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • ½ onion, diced
  • 1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
  • 1 can black beans (15 oz, drained and rinsed)
  • 1 can kidney beans (15 oz, drained and rinsed)
  • 1 can crushed tomatoes (15 oz)
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 2 cups cooked rice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Beef: Brown 1 lb of ground beef in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks until fully cooked and no longer pink. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  2. Add Ingredients to Crock Pot: Place the browned beef, taco seasoning, garlic salt, salt, pepper, diced onion, corn, black beans, kidney beans, crushed tomatoes, and beef broth into the crock pot. Stir to combine evenly.
  3. Cook the Soup: Cover the crock pot and cook the mixture on low heat for 4-5 hours, or on high heat for 2-2.5 hours, allowing flavors to meld and vegetables to soften.
  4. Incorporate the Rice: About 2-4 minutes before serving, stir 2 cups of cooked rice into the crock pot. Cover again and let the rice warm through.
  5. Serve: Ladle the hot taco rice soup into bowls and serve with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped cilantro, or sliced jalapeños. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Use cooked rice rather than raw rice to prevent overcooking or mushiness.
  • Adjust the seasoning (salt, pepper, taco seasoning) to taste before serving.
  • For a vegetarian version, substitute ground beef with plant-based meat or omit it and use vegetable broth.
  • Beans can be rinsed to reduce sodium content.
  • Leftover soup keeps well refrigerated for 3-4 days and freezes up to 3 months.
  • Add fresh toppings like avocado or cilantro to enhance freshness.
