I haven't always been a fan of soup, but this winter, soup just seems so delicious on a cold Winter day! We had this Three Bean Taco Soup last night for dinner. It's a bit spicy for the kids' tastes, but hubby and I love it!
Ingredients:
- two pounds ground beef (I used lean longhorn beef)
- one onion, diced
- one can of pinto beans
- one can of kidney beans
- one can of black beans, rinsed and drained
- one can of fire roasted tomatoes
- one can of tomatoes with green chiles
- four cups of water
- 1/2 – one tablespoon chili powder (depending on how spicy you like it)
- two teaspoons onion salt
- one teaspoon garlic powder
- one teaspoon cumin
- one teaspoon sugar
- one teaspoon oregano

Directions:
- Brown meat and onions in a pan. When fully cooked, drain the grease.
- Add in the rest of the ingredients – pinto beans, kidney beans, black beans, fire roasted tomatoes, tomatoes with green chiles, water, chili powder, onion salt, garlic powder, cumin, sugar, and oregano.
- Stir to mix well and cook on medium high for 30-45 minutes OR place in a slow cooker and cook on high for 6-8 hours on low.
- Serve! Can be served with corn tortillas, corn tortilla chips, sour cream, diced avocado, cheese, jalapenos, etc.

Yum I love beans! Thanks for the recipe, I'l "pin" this for later
I had to take a second look because that looks almost exactly like our Taco soup. A few different ingredients… and no kidney beans… but similar. Looks delicious! I need to try your recipe next time.
Do you have your recipe posted? I love to compare different recipes, I could be leaving out a key ingredient! :) Most taco soup recipes call for corn, but with DH's diet, corn wasn't allowed. So, I added in more beans and just left the corn out.
I really want to make this. I have a new Ninja slow cooker and this would be a great recipe to try in it.
This looks like something my soup hating BF would eat. It sounds almost like chili.
The hubby said it tasted a lot like chili, which is good for a chili lover like him!
What a great recipe for a cold winter day!
That looks and sounds amazing! Pinning it
Let me know how you like it if you make it!
