Running Late Option

If you don’t have 4-6 Hours to slow cook your easy taco soup recipe, you can move to a saucepan on the stovetop.

Slow cooking helps blend the many ingredient flavors; however, in a pinch, the stovetop is still delicious.

Cooking a Large Pot of Taco Soup

Another advantage to cooking a large pot of soup is that any leftovers can be quickly frozen for another winter’s day. Here is an Easy Enchilada Recipe that also freezes well for last-minute meals.

Taco soup is also delicious with these Sweet Corn Bread Muffins. You can see this easy recipe here.
