Lately, I’ve been receiving a lot of emails from y’all, and it’s clear that you need more family-style meals that work for you and your family. And trust me, I get it; nobody wants to cook two dinners! Some days I don’t want to cook one!
This recipe is one everyone at your dinner table-even the picky eaters-will love and with only 3.5 net carbs per bowl, you will love it too! It’s even better the next day, so you may want to cook a double batch for leftovers.
No Slow Cooker? No Problem!
If you’re crunched for time or don’t have a crockpot you can still enjoy this recipe! Just cook it all on the stovetop! It takes around 20 minutes from start to finish!
Is Taco Soup Freezer Friendly?
Another fab reason to love this recipe is you can make it ahead and freeze for later! If you do, hold off on the cream cheese and plan on adding it in when you reheat it.
Just make sure you allow the soup to cool before you freeze. It’s also not a bad idea to label your freezer bag or container with the following info:
- Name of Recipe
- Use By Date: (3 Months From Day You Cooked)
- Reheating Instructions: Thaw Overnight & Reheat On Stovetop OR Crockpot
- Notes: Add in Cream Cheese!
Keto Taco Soup FAQ
Why no beans or corn?
Both are high in carbs. Leaving them out keeps this soup keto, and with the cream cheese and taco seasoning, you won’t miss them.
Can I use ground turkey or chicken?
Yes! Ground turkey works the same way. For a chicken version, try my crockpot chicken taco soup.
