Top with cheese, avocado, and all the fixin’s. Enjoy!
What ingredients do I need to make this Easy One Pot Taco Soup?
- Lean ground beef or turkey- I like to use 96% lean ground beef. It gives this soup a bit more flavor due to the fat content in beef vs. turkey. Keep in mind the point value may vary depending on which one you use and the fat content. You can use 99% ground turkey, if you have ground turkey as a zero point food item-and want to keep this soup low in points.

- Ground black pepper
- Onion-diced
- Garlic– minced
- Crushed tomatoes-canned not drained.
- Green chilies-diced
