Tips:

  • Use a variety of beans. This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include black beans, pinto beans, and kidney beans.
  • Don't skimp on the spices. Taco soup is all about the flavor, so don't be afraid to add a generous amount of spices. Some good options include chili powder, cumin, paprika, and garlic powder.
  • Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. This will give your soup the best flavor. If you can't find fresh tomatoes, onions, or peppers, you can use canned or frozen instead.
  • Don't overcook the soup. Taco soup is best when it's cooked just until the vegetables are tender and the flavors have had a chance to blend. Overcooking can make the soup mushy and bland.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings. Taco soup is a great opportunity to get creative with your toppings. Some good options include shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, and salsa.
