8 cans taco soup
This is a quick 'n easy soup to put together. My husband and I especially enjoyed this soup the next day, as the seasonings seem to meld together in the soup a bit more. We also enjoyed the soup along with grilled cheese sandwiches.

No matter how much experience you have in the kitchen, you can make this taco soup recipe. It's a basic dump-and-go recipe. The taco and ranch seasonings add all the flavor to this simple soup. There's plenty of meat for it to be hearty. The combination of beans is perfect. Corn gives the soup just a touch of sweetness. We served ours with tortilla chips and cheese, but that's just a suggestion. Sour cream and avocado chunks would be great too. If you think your soup is too thick, just add one can of water to thin it a little.
