Hi! It’s Natasha here from Salt & Lavender. My Crockpot is such a lifesaver for busy weeknights. I’ll either make a big batch of something on Sunday so I have meals ready for the week, or I’ll put it on in the morning before the day gets hectic. Either way is a win!
This slow cooker taco soup recipe is easy to prepare, and the whole family will love it. And, of course, the toppings are the best part. What are you waiting for?
How to make Crockpot taco soup
- Brown the beef and discard most of the fat from the pan (I like to leave a bit in to give the soup extra flavor).
- Add all the soup ingredients to your slow cooker.
- Give it a good stir and put the lid on. Cook for 6-8 hours on low or 3-4 hours on high.
- Prep your toppings and then top the soup as desired. Enjoy!
How long do you cook Crockpot taco soup?
6-8 hours on low (I usually cook mine for 8 hours) or 3-4 hours on high. The longer you cook it, the more flavor it will have.

Optional Toppings
Instructions
- Brown 1 ½ pounds lean ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking the beef up with your spoon as you go along. Once the meat has browned, drain most of the fat (I like to leave a bit in for flavor), and add it to your slow cooker.
- Add ½ medium onion chopped, 1 (12-ounce) can corn, 1 (14-ounce) can black beans, 1 (14-ounce) can red kidney beans, 1 (14-ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes, 1 (4-ounce) can diced green chilis, 2 cups beef broth, 2 cups water, ¼ teaspoon dried oregano, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, ½ teaspoon smoked paprika, ½ teaspoon chili powder, and ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, to your Crockpot and give it a good stir.
- Close the lid and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
- Prior to serving, prepare your desired toppings. Give the soup a taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Top the soup to taste and enjoy!
Notes
- Anything from 1-2 pounds of ground beef will work.
- If you’re sensitive to salt, use low-sodium beef broth.
- You can use regular diced tomatoes, but fire-roasted ones have more flavor.
- If you don’t want the soup to be spicy, leave out the cayenne pepper.
