Creamy Black Bean Taco Soup
A cross between a good old-fashioned chili and a zesty taco soup, this creamy black bean taco soup is so fast, so easy, and SO delicious!
Easy, quick, absolutely-crazy-delicious dinners are kind of my jam right now. Even though it’s only mid-February, our mild winter (well, up until the last week or so) has spring soccer coaches already mapping out practice schedules to start this next week. #toosoon
我想挑选一个健康并坚持我们所有的冬眠至少2.3个月,但是当我恢复退后一步并意识到不是每个人都是像我这样的极端家庭(谁可以诚实地冬眠到一年中的11.5个月),我对我的大女孩应对技巧并开始规划“饭菜适合足球季节”。
The alternate title would be “meals fit for two kids in soccer, two kids in piano, one kid in cello, one kid working after school but too young to drive himself, one kid in gymnastics, and one mom in danger of losing her sanity.” I know I’m not alone in this.
This one pot creamy black bean taco soup has been a family favorite for years. And it isalwaysa hit. It’s so down home hearty and comforting that we all kind of take it for granted until someone outside the fam is eating with us and shows a little gratitude at the tastiness.
It’s not quite a chili. And not quite a taco or tortilla soup. It’s the best of all those worlds loaded with black beans and tomatoes, green chiles and tender ground beef. What makes it extra special and really unique is the creaminess that comes from a super simple roux (melted butter + flour + milk).
这些组合不仅令人愉快地加厚汤,但增加了奶油,这是一个不同于我曾经拥有的任何其他墨西哥蛇的汤的维度。
As with other soups in this similar category, the best part is piling on any and all “taco-type” toppings laying around. Fresh cilantro, shredded cheese, crushed tortilla chips, diced avocado, squeezes of fresh lime.
All are acceptable and welcomed.
If getting dinner on the table fast makes you as happy as it makes me, my gift to you today is this creamy black bean taco soup. It’s been living on my site for a while now, but deserved a fresh pop back into the spotlight. I’ve even adapted the recipe just slightly to make it even easier than it was before.
Bonus:如果您需要提前提前进行此操作,请在慢炖锅中保持温暖几个小时。

Creamy Black Bean Taco Soup
配料
- 1 pound lean ground beef or turkey
- 1茶匙盐
- 1/2茶匙胡椒
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1茶匙干牛至
- 2汤匙黄油
- 2汤匙面粉
- 2 cups milk, divided (meaning you'll use 1 cup first and the other cup later)
- 4盎司切碎的蒙特里杰克奶酪(约1杯)万博体育app官网
- 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes, undrained
- 4盎司可以切割绿辣椒
- Chopped, fresh cilantro and taco toppings for serving (optional)
Instructions
- In a 4- or 5-quart pot, cook the ground beef or turkey over medium to medium-high heat with the salt and pepper, breaking the meat into small pieces as it cooks. Once it is cooked through, drain any excess grease.
- Add the onion powder, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder and oregano to the meat and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring often.
- Add the butter, scraping up any browned bits from the meat. Whisk in the flour and cook for a minute or so, whisking constantly, letting the mixture brown and bubble. Slowly whisk in 1 cup of the milk. Continue stirring while heating the mixture to a gentle simmer. Moderate the heat on the stove so the soup just bubbles but doesn't boil vigorously. Cook for 1-2 minutes to let it thicken slightly.
- Add the black beans, diced tomatoes, green chiles, and remaining 1 cup milk. Simmer gently for 5-10 minutes. Add the cheese and stir until melted.
- 用新鲜的香菜配送(也可以用碎玉米片,酸奶油,切碎的奶酪,橄榄,或者你喜欢的东西!)。
Notes
适应的食谱:多年来,我改编了这个配方稍微更容易,将肉留在锅中(原来的版本在烹饪后从锅中取出肉,并在步骤#4期间加入。我还开始在Step#4中添加奶酪而不是步骤#3(有助于防止汤煨时底部的烧焦)。
Make-Ahead:如果您需要提前提前进行此,汤可以在炉灶上制作,然后在慢炖锅中保持温暖几个小时。

Recipe originally published in March 2015; updated with new photos, recipe updates, and commentary.
This was so fast to make and so delicious. Thank you!
Another great recipe! Thanks, Mel! This is a great combination of chili and taco soup. I used fire roasted tomatoes, and I think it may have kicked up the heat a bit! Ha! Our family of 6 all enjoyed it though, even the 10 month old.
Sorry…the tomatoes added depth, not heat! My mistake.
这汤是一个完美的,美味的选择哒rk, drizzly Friday night! I made it during naptime and then put it in the crock-pot on low for a few hours ’til dinner. My kids (ages 3-16) all ate it, and at least one had a big bowl of seconds. It was just the right amount for our family of six… with a small serving left over for my lunch on Monday.
我可以使用辣椒插孔吗?
Yes, I think so.
I’d love to freeze this, but am worried about the soup’s consistency once defrosted (because of the milk). Have you tried freezing? Thanks!
It actually freezes ok – the texture is slightly more grainy once it’s thawed and reheated but we don’t mind it (still yummy).
这是我曾经拥有过的最喜欢的汤之一!多年来,我将赚到这一点。
Slow cooker conversion: Wanted to let you now I made this recipe through step 3, then refrigerated the meat until later in the week. Then I put the meat in a slow cooker, continued with the rest of the steps and cooked everything on high for about an hour. It was just as delicious as when I have made this before fully on a cooktop. I also added a can of pinto beans to stretch this recipe a little further for my family. We all loved it!
Awesome! Thank you!
这是非常好的!本着“使用你拥有的东西”,我用肉褐色1/2切成一块切成小块的黄胡椒,它没有伤害它。事实上,它很美味。谢谢你的另一个精彩的食谱,梅尔。
You saved dinner again with this one Mel. I have my favorite recipes from your blog and I make them for 85% of all the meals we eat. (Things are too busy at this stage of life and I need a routine to stay a float otherwise I would cook my way though all of your amazing recipes).
今晚我不知道用储藏室里/冰柜的有限食物制作什么,所以我抬头看着你的博客和瞧!I had everything for this recipe (minus the cilantro family loved it! Thanks so much!!
This is now my go-to taco soup. It is so good. Thanks for another awesome recipe that has made it in my permanent rotation! And, if you want an extra kick, send your husband to the store and end up with diced jalapeños instead of diced green chiles. It really kicks it up a notch. Haha.
I’m trying to make this without going to the grocery store. Could I sub chopped chicken for the ground meat?
是的,我觉得这会很美味!
made with 1/2 milk 1/2 chicken broth, subbed diced tomatoes for fire roasted diced tomatoes. GREAT results. Thanks for the recipe!
I want to make this for about 30 people. Since this recipe only serves 5-6 people what would be the best way to make this for that amount? Should I make 3 double batches and then mix together? I’ve never made soup for a large group so I appreciate any advice, Thank you!
If you have a pot large enough I’d probably try and do two triple batches and then combine them. Otherwise, three double batches would work!
Can I sub anything for the milk…broth maybe???
你可以尝试 - 汤不会像奶油一样,它可能会影响整体纹理/一致性。
Can this recipe be made in the instant pot?
我没有尝试过,但它可能会转换得很好。
This soup is really delicious! So easy and quick to put together, and a total crowd-pleaser at my house. Thank you!
Thanks, Sarah!
This was so GOOD and easy! I will make it frequently. It really hit the spot!
This was sooo good! Our whole family loved it.
Thanks, Summer!
Oh, Mel, this is absolutely delicious; I could eat it every day for the rest of my life. Even with substituting ground turkey and skim milk, it had that extra layer of flavor you mentioned.
I usually shred my own cheese, but Costco sells a 2.5 lb bag of “Supremo Queso Chihuahua” Mexican cheese that I sprinkled on top, which complemented the cilantro.
再次感谢你!
Three questions: How is Brian these days? Did you ever get your pink Sak Crossbody? Where are your cooking videos found?
Hi Nancy! So happy you love this! Brian’s doing really well. A few weeks after I shared that Friday Thoughts post he really turned the corner and he’s actually snoring quite a bit less, which is awesome (for both of us!). I ended up ordering the sage green Sak Crossbody and love it. I use it literally every single day. And here’s the link for the new IGTV cooking videos I’ve been doing (posting a new one this week!)://www.zradio1.com/bake-with-mel-igtv-videos/
美味的汤!是一个真正的人群愉快!它喂给我们的五口之家,但剩下还没有足够的东西......我们的小孩要求下次将其加倍,所以他们可能有几秒钟。谢谢你这样一个美味的食谱!
Thanks, Laura!
这个食谱是如此美好,风味令人惊叹。是一个小背,所以下次会倍增!
Glad you loved it. Thanks for letting me know!
Is the roux made separately, then added in?
Roux在同一个锅中制作肉类烹饪,然后加入所有成分(所以它可以是一个容易的,一个锅餐)
这是美味的,梅尔!谢谢!我通过使用脱脂牛奶和地面鸡胸来制作它的WW Online。manbetx赛车(我住在新加坡,无法找到土耳其乳房。甚至鸡胸肉很难找到,但我去了一个携带它的大型屠户店铺。)给出了那些修改,而且我从锅中有manbetx赛车6份,那点是6个自由式智能点。我没有添加玉米片,等玉米片,因为所添加的点,但它不需要任何东西。爱它!精彩的汤。肯定会再做一次。
谢谢,Jeanne!
谢谢你的另一个伟大的食谱!味道很棒!为了确保充足的剩菜,我加倍配方,但只使用了1.5磅的肉。我还在牛奶上跑了短暂的牛奶,所以只用orignal 2杯。因此,它更像是辣椒而不是汤。丈夫用完了意大利面,并肆虐它。万博体育app官网我有简单,彻底享受它。这是一个明确的守门员。
My picky 8 year old gobbled this up! That’s a major win in my book!
I made several adjustments to the recipe based on what I had available.
我用鸡而不是土manbetx赛车耳其和剩下的黑豆和米饭配方。我也弄清楚了所有的西红柿,因为这是我挑剔的食物的粘性点。像魅力一样工作!
Delicious with your cornbread recipe! Wont ever make the box mixes again!
好工作!
Everyone loved this soup! Definitely will make again and again!
这个食谱很棒!我们长期以来最好的晚餐之一。谢谢你的另一个晚餐!
Thanks, Haley!
A wonderful mix up on my usual taco soup. Loved, loved, loved the creaminess. I forgot to buy green chilies, but I had some green salsa verde on hand, so I threw in about a cup of that. Delicious! My only complaint was that there wasn’t enough. I’ll definitely double it next time.
我也沉着绿莎莎,它的工作很棒 - 很高兴你喜欢它。谢谢,辛迪!
Another great recipe. Simple and on the dinner table in no time. Thank you! I love your recipes and you are my go to site for almost everything I make.
Thank you so much, Loni!!
Made this tonight. Thank you for not making me chop an onion ❤️
Haha, thanks for making me laugh, Emily.
Absolutely delicious. Kids found it too spicy but I think that’s because my chilli powder has a huge kick even after I cut 1/2 a tsp from the recipe. But us grown ups thought it was perfect. I give bonus points for being quick, easy and all made in 1 pot. We topped with tortilla chips, cheddar and sour cream. And we followed it up with chocolate orange trifle – we’re English, I’m not sure if trifle is a thing in America, but if you could please do a trifle recipe Mel I would love to try your version
Thanks for the review, Claire! The chocolate orange trifle sounds amazing!
This soup is delicious, quick and easy. Crumbling chips over top is a must. As is some sliced avocado and a sprinkle of cheese.
我同意芯片,丽莎万博体育app官网!
Perfectly easy and flavorful and another Mel hit! We will definitely put this into normal rotation.
Thanks, Rachel!
这很容易制作和品尝美味。谢谢你的另一个美妙的食谱!
Thanks for taking the time to let me know, Shanna!
So good! My husband loved this soup tonight for dinner.
Thanks, Cyndi!
我的丈夫给了这个食谱竖起大拇指!他确实加入了Cayenne只是为了睡觉。我在想我会在星期天晚餐中再次做到这一点,因为它是如此厚,我可能只是用它作为炸玉米饼馅。
Made this today. I had a hard time controlling myself when I test tasted it! Sooooo good! And quick!
谢谢!
Yay! Glad to hear it, Annie!
谢谢你的鼓舞人心和实用的食谱。万博半全场
梅尔, I made this yesterday and it was out of this world! So so yummy! I can’t wait to make this again!! Thank you!
So happy to hear that – thank you so much, Nancy!
Love it. I need more fast easy recipes for nights of playing taxi driver. You should do a post showing 5 or 10 of you go to meals for those nights. I remember being sad when I was old enough to drive myself to piano lessons as a teenager because I missed the one on one time to talk to my mom. Also what did you feed your boys when they did no sugar? My teenager is attempting to do no sugar and man it’s hard to do!
Good point about the one on one time. I’ll be grateful for the time I get in the car with the kids right now! I didn’t really modify much when my boys went without sweets for a whole year. They didn’t do a strict 100% no sugar, they just didn’t eat any sweets, baked treats, candy, cookies, cake, anything like that, but they still had things like waffles for breakfast (homemade but they have a few tablespoons sugar).
这看起来很棒!我正在印刷它来使用本周!有没有办法打印你的食谱?万博半全场当我为自己制作时,我真的很喜欢看到成品。当配方进入打印模式时,它不包括图片。
Hey Sandra, right now I have to set the settings to either show the picture across the board or to never show the picture (and I have readers that want it both ways!) so I’m working on a way for you to be able to select whether the picture shows. Thanks for your patience!
That would be so wonderful! Also, I made this soup tonight and I am in love again! It has amazing flavor! Thanks!
这太疯狂了我今晚的晚餐, it is one of my favorites. I just got on Facebook and see that you have posted it. Thank you Mel for all the great recipes this is a must make recipe.
So happy to hear that, Tiffany!
Is it possible to make this vegetarian? I mean, I know it’s possible, but how do you think it would taste?
我相信你可以!我认为肉增加了味道,但如果你习惯素食,我想你真的很喜欢它。只需调整调味料,以确保它有足够的pizazz!
我买了素食的碎屑(Gardein,尽管其他e are other brands). I’ve never tried them before but wanted to make the recipe. It was really good! I also subbed in almond milk and used cashew cheese sauce for the cheese. And added some corn, just because I wanted the pop of color. Even with all of those changes, my whole family gave it 2 thumbs up. Quick, easy, and yummy!
百胜!玉米对这汤来说是一个很棒的补充剂!
我昨晚刚吃晚饭!在寒冷的冬天之夜,这是一个如此简单的舒适度!
I loved this one! Easy to make. Definitely will make again!
Delicious, even without the milk! Thank you!
I loved you comment about going old school. I’ve found myself doing that recently because well….overload on 1,000 ways to make (insert meal here). Recently I pulled out some old classic, not fancy cookbooks and entertained the thought of working my way through one. It was fun to see how many things that we might think are “new” have been around forrrrrrever. Just started looking at your inspirations. Thanks!
谢谢mil!我吃了肉类碎片,使佩里的板块的美味的邋an,但是当它到它的时候,即使是那个简单的食谱似乎很难今晚的夜晚。这是如此简单,我们充满爱它。
我无法告诉你你的一天有多少次为我节省了一天!万博半全场我做了这么多的狍子,我的家人都爱他们。这个很棒。谢谢!
非常感谢,leanne!
my whole family loved it! thank you Mel
我想要尝试并在几份份量上伸展并伸展这汤。如果我添加了一些鸡汤,更多的西红柿或一些番茄汁,你认为会更好吗?manbetx赛车我有一个家庭成员计数卡路里,只需4-6份,它在较高侧有点。我以为是否可以将其达到8份,这将减少该数字。
你肯定可以尝试所有这些 - 或者也许是一个组合。如果你加入番茄汁,我建议调整调味料(特别是盐和胡椒)来味道。
This is one of our favorite recipes! I noticed you make this in your instant pot – what are your directions and cooking time? I’m nervous to try it because I thought you couldn’t really do milk/roux in the pressure cooker. Thanks!!
Hi Jessica – that recipe was actually stuck in the Pressure Cooker Friendly category by mistake. Well…actually, it MIGHT do fine in the pressure cooker, but I haven’t tried it because it’s so quick on the stovetop. Sorry about that!
Thanks for putting this in our menu this week. Easy, fast, & delicious!
你认为这可能是在慢炖锅吗?Any tips if you’ve tried it before?
I haven’t tried it so I’m not sure – you could probably make all the components and assemble it/keep it warm in the slow cooker.
这很棒!我为香肠和我的丈夫切换碎牛肉,我围巾巨大的碗,总是用你美味的玉米面包的锅吃掉。今晚再次在菜单上......
我们今晚为晚餐做了这件事,很美味!你的食谱永万博半全场远不会让人失望!
Delicious! We’ve made this twice–the second time, I doubled everything except the meat, and it was perfect. A little more liquidy the second time around, but it was still so good! I also highly recommend with the cornbread. I love this meal!
多么惊人的汤!所有人都很容易准备和发深。非常感谢。
Eating this right now. Soooo good and perfect to throw together for a hearty weeknight dinner. I added some ground pepper since I love anything spicy but other then that made it exactly as written. Looking forward to the leftovers for lunch since we are just a family of two:)
Very delicious! My family loved it
这是我曾经拥有过的最好的炸玉米饼汤!绝对是一个守门员。它在4名成人和一个孩子舒适地服务,但没有剩菜,所以下次我肯定会翻倍(我认为你不需要加倍肉,只是剩下的)。这太好了!
And it was so quick to make! Definitely a 30 minute meal.
I also wanted to say thank you…..love your recipes
Absolutely delicious…..I doubled recipe!!! This goes on the top of my list
这是太棒了!超级快速和容易,这是just what you need during a busy week. I too was a bit skeptical about how much it would make for our family of 4 (2 adults & 2 teenagers) but we ate to our fill, and it was perfect. The only thing I will change next time: double the recipe so I will have leftover soup for lunches the rest of the week! Thanks again, Mel – another great recipe!
Hi Mel! My kids (3 and 4.5) don’t eat soup. Crazy, I know! I love soup, so I usually feed them whatever “dipper” I make to go along with it. Tonight, what I did was make the recipe exactly as directed up until you add the can of tomatoes and the last cup of milk. I scooped out about a half cup of meat/beans/cheese mixture and set that aside for quesadilla fillings with a little more of the jack cheese. Then I added in the tomatoes and milk to finish the soup for hubs and me. It was a total hit! Thanks for these recipes. You are my go-to site for all things yummy!!! Best of luck with your half marathon…my first 10k in about 5 years is this June!
我昨晚用鸡肉做了这个,这很棒!manbetx赛车我们喜欢快速,简单,美味的饭菜。谢谢!!
Made it tonight as is and its a wonderful soup- quick and delish!
Thanks Mel
喜欢这个梅尔。在跑步之中欢呼你......从副业来看,这是我期待8月份的第三个。
Just had it for dinner–my tummy is so full! I couldn’t stop eating this yummy soup! Thanks for the quick meal idea.
谢谢!Tried this the other night and it was delicious! I’m the only one in my family that likes traditional taco soup, so I rarely make it. I’m glad to say they ate this and liked it! I liked throwing in some homemade corn bread in my bowl. Made it even more filling!
百胜!This looks so delicious. You gotta love those old recipe binders. I have several and I love to pull them out as often as I can and go through all the recipes in them. I always forget how many fabulous recipes there are hiding in those binders. Thanks for all your delicious recipes.
Thanks for a great new soup for us! It was delicious!! I doubled the recipe and used chicken (and browned up an onion with it.) I was a tad skeptical because we are not chunky tomato people so I pureed one of the cans of diced tomatoes and it was delicious! I had company coming last night and I knew I could use one of your recipes to serve guests…not having made it beforehand. Thanks!!
Thanks for this recipe Mel. We all enjoyed it, which is saying something. Plus it was very easy, which is exactly what I needed for a busy evening.
If I omit the meat my vegetarian gf’s would love this! Scrapbooking night usually ends with soup and salad. This is perfect! Thanks for sharing
I cannot wait to try this when I get home from my vacation. This will be our next weeknight meal. Yum!
This was so good. You made me bag my dinner plans and make this. My 4 year old said, “you should make this every night, mom!” I rarely hear such declarations! Thanks for the great recipe!
这听起来很棒!我喜欢看起来很多旧食谱,我喜欢看。有时候有些关于在一本书中翻页的东西,即单击按钮无法实现.万博体育app官网.....虽然我是一个按钮咔哒声!
This is simmering on the stove right now. Smells awesome. I didn’t realize I missed the second cup of milk til I read the final point. So I just stirred it in at the end. Seems like it’s gonna be alright! This was the exact recipe I need tonight…super busy. Thanks Mel:)
I made this today, and it was absolutely delicious! I doubled it and it fed our family of six hungry people I am very curious to hear how your son got into wrestling? My brother did in high school, but I’ve never experienced younger kids doing it. I would love to hear your story.
Hi Kate – about wrestling, my husband wrestled in college and so wherever we’ve lived he’s been proactive at searching out the youth wrestling programs. For the most part, the schools have included youth wrestling programs either as a club-type sport or actually sponsored through the school. My oldest son has wrestled off and on since Kindergarten and is currently the only one doing it although the other boys have cycled in every other year, whenever they decide they want to again. Right now, there is a freestyle club team for the community we live in and it’s been a great opportunity for Jackson (my oldest).
Just one more quick note about the serving size – I edited the recipe to say it serves 4-6 but just for clarification, the recipe as is fed our family of seven. Granted, that’s five kids and they ate smaller portions than me or Brian but the soup is especially hearty and filling with the meat, beans, and tomatoes (plus any toppings you may add).
抱歉留下了1杯牛奶!它在西红柿和豆子里添加了。我刚刚更新了食谱。(很高兴你喜欢它,Marybeth - 积分为您提供如此迅速!)
I just made this soup and it is awesome!! The flavors are heavenly..words cannot describe the creamy.cheesey.broth.. So yum!! I doubled the recipe and added the extra milk after the cheese was melted..came out perfectly!!
When do you add the second cup of milk?
This sounds so good, I’ve never thought of putting milk into a black bean soup, but I can imagine how creamy it would make it!
It seems like a stretch to say it’s for six people though, since the bulk of it is just a pound of meat, some milk and one can of beans. I would think it’d be more like four servings maybe?
I guess it depends on how big of a bowl you dish up. We served it with lots of garnishes and it gave us about 6 smaller servings.
I’m with the others, when is the other cup of milk added? and I too scratching my head thinking not much liquid at all. Thanks for any clarification.
I’ve never had creamy taco soup, but taco soup and your insanely divine cornbread is one of our favorite combos. Everything is better creamy, am I right?
Hi! First of all, I LOVE your website. You have enriched my life more than you know! I am confused, as some of the other readers are about the 2nd cup of milk. Can you clarify?
Thanks!
looks delish, but when does the rest of the milk go in??
这看起来很好。
是的,我还在文件柜抽屉里拥有所有旧的印刷食谱。万博半全场我只是不认为我会完全转向纸质书籍或纸质食谱。万博半全场
所有这些做法都对你感到享受。我记得当我的男孩(谁只有一年)来分开T-Ball /棒球实践和游戏。我的丈夫旅行,并不是在家帮忙。有时我必须争取奶奶的帮助让他们到他们所需要的地方。无法想象和四个男孩一起做它。
哦,你什么时候添加第二杯牛奶?
Step 5
I can’t wait to try this! Your black bean and fire roasted tomato soup with the corn salsa/relish was amazing, and this sounds like another winner!
This looks amazing, Mel! I agree with you about needing to take a break from Pinterest sometimes. I have binders full of recipes (so old school) and I am always excited to discover in them the recipes I have collected and enjoyed over the years!
所以没有其他肉汤或水补充?我错过了什么?汤只有两杯牛奶和一罐西红柿喂六个人?
塔拉 - 嗯,还有肉磅......我认为我倾向于遗漏,只是使用更多的豆子。
Just like I responded to Leah – we served it with garnishes (like crushed chips, cheese, sour cream, etc.) and it fed six smaller servings. I’m not envisioning the servings to be giant bowlfuls, but if so, it would be better to plan on it feeding 4.
