This Easy Crock Pot Taco Soup is so simple to throw together and delicious after a long day! Substitute your favorite beans for special flavor every time!
Cris here. As I mentioned earlier, I very much enjoy the new cookbook from Gooseberry Patch — Christmas at Grandma’s and this recipe is one of the many reasons.
How to Make Taco Soup in a Slow Cooker
I just love a great recipe that is a snap to throw together… and, if leftovers go over well with the fam, even better. This recipe for Easy Crock Pot Taco Soup fits the bill on all accounts. Miss Add is a huge fan… which is a big win because it makes packing school lunch for the week super easy! (Ahem… this mama may or may not be known to rely on Lunchables during a rough week, so I am always grateful when a recipe can pull double duty around here 😉 ).
Easy Crock Pot Taco Soup Notes
- I used my favorite browning slow cooker to crock up this recipe. It is a 6 quart model, but you could get away with using a 4 quart slow cooker pretty easily on this one.
- I used great northern beans in this recipe, but you could use any of your favorite beans.
- I tossed in some freeze dried garlic too, just because I love it 😉
- This recipe is adapted from Gooseberry Patch’s Christmas at Grandma’s.

Can you use ground turkey instead of beef? Does the meat have to be cooked before adding to the crockpot?
Hi Lin!
We haven’t tried this with ground turkey instead of ground beef, but it should work. Yes, you cook the meat in step one of the recipe. Enjoy!
Aunt Lou
This looks delicious and want to try it but quick questions for you. Do you drain the beans? When do you add them?
I did not drain them. Enjoy!!!
Delicious soup! Makes a very large amount so be prepared to freeze portions. Will make again when fall’s cooler weather arrives.
Do you think I could use a can of crushed or petite diced tomatoes instead of the tomato sauce as that would cut the acid a little bit??
You could definitely give it a try!
Taco soup really hits the spot…DELICIOUS!!
Indeed! Yum!!
Add a package of dry Ranch dressing, just adds a little something extra!
I cooked this yesterday, I was so good…. Added few more spices and I swore it was better than Olive G soup! So good, thanks for sharing
Oh Geraldine I’m so glad to hear it!
Could I use minced garlic in place of the freeze dried?
Ron-
Totally. 1/4 tsp freeze dried equals about a clove minced. Enjoy!
