No-Brainer Taco Soup gets its name from how incredibly easy it is to make. Not only is it quick to throw together, but it's also incredibly flavorful. Spiced with taco seasoning and made with ground beef, corn, green chilies, and condensed tomato soup, this soup is perfect for a cozy night in. The best part? It can be customized to your liking with a variety of toppings that give it extra flavor and texture.

Instructions

1.	Brown the ground beef in a large pot over medium heat until fully cooked.
2.	Add in the corn, tomato soup, green chilies, and taco seasoning.
3.	If you want a thinner consistency, add in chicken broth until the desired consistency is reached.
4.	Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for 10-15 minutes until all the ingredients are heated through.
5.	Serve hot and topped with your favorite toppings like cheese, sour cream, tortilla chips, and cilantro.

PROS

No-Brainer Taco Soup is incredibly easy to make and can be whipped up in just a matter of minutes using common ingredients you likely already have in the pantry.

This soup is also hearty and filling, making it a great meal on its own or a perfect option for lunch leftovers.

CONS

This soup can be fairly high in sodium, so be careful if you’re keeping track of your salt intake.

Also, while it’s undeniably tasty, it’s not the most nutritionally-dense meal out there.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

While this soup isn’t exactly a health food, it does contain protein from the ground beef, and the inclusion of corn and diced tomatoes adds a small amount of vitamins and fiber to the mix. Additionally, this soup is gluten-free (so long as you check that the taco seasoning is gluten-free as well).
