Hello my friends! I hope you are hanging in there and staying well! I have a really delicious recipe for you today that is super easy and quick to make.
I got this recipe from a friend recently and I’m not sure exactly what to call it — it’s not a casserole, and not quite a soup. It leans more towards a taco soup so I’m going with that. 🙂
As I started to write down the ingredients list, I realized at least half of the items wouldn’t be needed and it would still be really good. So I added a bit and removed a lot and made it even easier to make!
So here you go, my edited taco “soup” recipe for your enjoyment!:
Easy taco soup dish
- Start rice prep in separate pot
- Brown ground beef and onion together in skillet (drain if needed)
- Add garlic and taco seasoning, continue to brown/stir
- Add corn, cooked rice, diced tomatoes (do not drain) and cook for 10-15 minutes (ten will be plenty if your rice is cooked through)
- Stir in cilantro and lime juice
- Top with cheese in skillet or add when serving
- I used diced tomatoes with chilies and it was perfect for me but just a bit hot for my husband. Next time I plan to use plain diced tomatoes since the taco seasoning is plenty of flavor.
- The original recipe called for a whole onion and quite a few more spices, but I figured that would be a little much for our taste (I ended up using about 1/4 cup onion.)
- It also said to cook the rice in the skillet with everything else, but I knew it would be quicker to make that on the side and then add it.
- We don’t care for beans so did not add.
(By the way, the photos in the dish are a day or so later. It has more of a soup consistency at preparation.)
