I love tacos so much! I am sure many of you do too. The only problem that a full taco night poses, in my opinion, is the prep. You need to do some shopping for a good taco night. This easy beef taco soup is the perfect substitute when you are short on time or energy.
You can probably quickly have this easy beef taco soup done in less than 30 minutes. The trick is that it calls for premade salsa. I use Pace Picante Sauce for this, but any delicious chunky salsa will work just fine.
