TURKEY CHILI TACO SOUP
Turkey chili taco soup with healthy ground turkey, three kinds of beans, salsa, corn, and lots of seasonings to give it the perfect flavor! I love the combination of chili + taco soup. Top it off with some sour cream, shredded cheese, and tortilla strips or chips.
Ground turkey is one of my favorite grounds meats to use in recipes. All my kids love it, it's healthier, and you really can't tell the difference compared to using ground beef. Some of our other favorite ground turkey recipes is this one pot Turkey Chili Mac & Cheese this Turkey Taco Rice Skillet and these turkey taco burrito bowls which have been pinned over one million times!
HOW TO MAKE TURKEY CHILI TACO SOUP
MY TIPS & HELPFUL HINTS
-
Can I make this in a crock pot?
- Yes you can! I have never done it but it can easily be adapted for the crock pot. Simply cook the ground beef with the pepper, onion, and salt as directed in the recipe, drain it and then add it into the insert of the slow cooker. Add the remaining ingredients and cook on LOW heat for about 6 hours. Or less because the meat is already cook so you are basically just combining the flavors and letting it "simmer'.
-
Can I substitute the beans with something else?
- This turkey chili taco soup calls for three different kinds of beans. Pinto beans, black beans, and chili beans. The chili beans, which are pinto beans in a mild chili sauce, really add a lot to this soup and gives it that 'chili' taste and thickness. However, you could substitute the other beans with something else. Other great choices are kidney beans, white navy beans, white cannelloni beans, or just use two cans of black beans if you don't want the pinto beans. I would suggest using the chili beans no matter what.
