Why We Love 7 Can Soup (Flexible Taco Soup)

• Easy Pantry Meal – This is a true pantry meal, no refrigeration required for any of these ingredients. It’s great to keep these ingredients on hand for a night you didn’t plan dinner, for getting caught in a snow storm, or just to help you stretch your grocery budget. This super easy soup uses mostly canned goods.
• Incredibly Flexible Soup – This recipe is really easy to swap in and out ingredients your family prefers. Swap different kinds of beans, meat, or just use what you have on hand. You can also add in extra vegetables or meat you may have leftover. Make this soup when you need to clean a few things out of the fridge, it’s hard to go wrong with this easy meal.

Ingredients For 7 Can Soup

• No Bean chili canned
• roasted tomatoes canned, usually you’ll need two cans.
• whole kernel corn drained, canned I used a southwestern flavor, but you can use plain as well. Frozen corn can also be used.
• tomatoes with green chilis canned, I use the kind with mild green chilies like Rotel
• ranch style beans canned, these are a seasoned pinto style bean
• black beans drained, canned
• Velveeta cheese cubed You can also use a store brand, this makes the soup creamy.

How To Make 7 Can Soup

1. Pour the no bean chili, roasted tomatoes, tomatoes with green chilis, whole kernel corn (drained), ranch style beans, and black beans (drained) to the base of the slow cooker. Add the cubed Velveeta cheese on top and cover.

2. Cook the soup on high heat for 3 hours or low heat for 5 hours.
3. Stir well to combine the cheese into the other ingredients. Serve and enjoy!

Variation Ideas

Swap In Different Kinds Of Beans – This taco style soup is really easy to swap out other types of canned beans. Use all black beans, swap pinto beans for the ranch style beans, or add kidney beans in place of one of the bean varrities. Use what you have in your pantry.

Use Ground Beef For The Canned Chili – I’ve used a canned chili to keep this recipe true to the 7 cans, but you can brown ground beef instead. I would recommend adding an additional can of diced tomatoes to make sure the soup has enough liquid. You can also use ground turkey or ground chicken.

Try Other Diced Meats – You can swap in leftover chicken like shredded chicken or rotisserie chicken into this recipe. Try adding a little cooked sausage or steak, you can easily add leftovers you may have in your fridge to this soup.

Try Cream Cheese – Cream Cheese can be swapped for Velveeta cheese. I recommend if using cream cheese to add it in the last 30 minutes of cooking, and to cut it into small pieces to help melt it into the soup.

Add Vegetables – Try adding diced bell pepper, diced onion, diced celery or diced zucchini. Diced potato is also delicious. This is a great recipe to look at what you have in the fridge and use the leftover vegetables.

Add Leftover Protein – Chicken, steak or pork you may have leftover can easily be diced and added to this soup. Use this soup as an opportunity to clean out the fridge anything that goes well with Mexican style flavors.

Can I Make This Soup In The Kitchen On The Stove?

This dump and go style soup is pretty easy to make on the stove. Dump all the ingredients into a large pot over medium high heat.

Bring the soup to boil, then cover, reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the soup is hot all the way through. Remove the lid and stir well until the cheese is smooth and creamy. Then serve and enjoy!

Can You Freeze 7 Can Soup?

Leftovers of this soup do also freeze well in a freezer container or freezer zip-top bag. If you use the cream cheese swap instead of Velveeta cheese be prepared that the soup will not freeze as well, as cream cheese tends to separate when you freeze it.

How Long Will 7 Can Soup Last?

Expect this soup will last for about 3-4 days if stored in a covered airtight container in the refrigerator. Like most soups, you can easily reheat this soup in the microwave in a few minutes or on the stovetop.
