It’s been one of those months for us. The weather is cold (as it is for everyone) but lots of family and personal things going on right now. So comfort food for me is… well, comforting. You would think that I would crave sweets when I’m feeling frumpy or sad, wouldn’t you? I mean, sheesh, I post enough of them. Maybe that’s why I crave yummy, hearty dishes like this.
A co-worker of mine gave me this recipe and I’m so glad she did. It’s fantastic and so easy to make. (Two things I appreciate!)
And my love for this recipe has nothing to do with the big blop of sour cream and Fritos. =o)
Ingredients:
* 1 pound ground beef (I used ground turkey)
* 1 medium onion (I used a sweet onion)
* 2 packages taco seasoning
* 2 cans corn
* 2 cans kidney beans (I used a can of black beans and one of kidney beans)
* 2 cans diced tomatoes
* 2 cans tomato sauce
Brown the hamburger and onion. Drain off the fat and add the taco seasoning.
Dump everything into a large pot (make sure you don’t drain any of the canned goods because you need the liquid!
Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer for 30-40 minutes.
Serve garnished with cheese, sour cream, Fritos, black olives…

Yum! That sounds perfect on a cool day!
I love taco soup-so perfect for cold dreary days:)
Yum…I love taco soup!!!
Spicy and yummy soup, would love to have that bowl with some crisps.
Ooooh now I know what I am making for dinner. I never thought of adding the Fritos. Yum.
This looks really good! I think that my kids will love this soup, since they love taco!
Looks delicious, Erin. Another rainy day ahead…definitely soup weather.
I really love taco soup. Anything topped with sour cream, chips and cheese is A-O.K. in my book:)
I make this too – scrumptious! The weather is finally warming up here, hope it is there too!
I just love these delicious easy to make meals. Comforting not only for the family but also for the cook!
This really does sound great! I love the flavors in it, and for me, the Fritos on the side definitely add to the yum factor:)
I hope you and your family are doing okay. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Yummy! My oldest would love this…especially because I won’t buy chips unless there is a recipe that calls for them. 🙂
Thanks for commenting on my blog!
I love taco soup! I usually do mine in the Crockpot. I brown the onions and the meat together, then just throw the rest of the ingredients in the slowcooker.
Yummy! Looks like a great recipe!
Thanks for linking up to Making It With Allie last week! I can’t wait to see what you have for this week!

Looks delicious!!! Am just checking out your blog for the first time! Love it! Also, saw a picture of your Octo-Dogs with Mac n Cheese – we must have the same cookbook as I blogged about that several weeks ago! My daughter LOVES it!
Yay for taco soup! My favorite thing about this recipe – it uses full cans. No leftover 1/2 can of corn or tomatoes! Great job!
Thank you for posting this. We have it on the menu for tomorrow night!
