This is another super easy slow cooker recipe. You literally just dump everything in, stir and it’s good to go. I kept this version simple so think of it as a base to get you started. I encourage you to add extra ingredients to your liking. One suggestion is to load up on some vegetables. Sometimes I use bell peppers, sometimes I don’t. For the meat, you can use ground beef, turkey, chicken or pork. I browned my ground meat prior to adding it to the slow cooker so I could drain the excess grease. If you use a meat lean enough, you don’t need to do this.

This uses my homemade taco seasoning. You can use a packet if you want. HOWEVER making your own taco seasoning blend is super easy and a heck of a lot healthier. Without preaching here, if you are going to use a store-bought packet, take a look at the amount of sodium that it contains. Still want to use it? If so, that’s okay! Occasionally when I’m crunched for time I will grab a packet too. It’s not going to kill you. That being said, I bet you already have all the spices to make your own blend. I use this seasoning all the time. It’s equivalent to 1 package of store-bought.

You can easily turn this into a healthy slow cooker taco soup recipe by adding 2 cups of low-sodium broth. This is also a great freezer meal. You can also double this recipe if you’re feeding a larger crowd.
