I know we will soon be on holiday break and yet I already have back to school on the brain ( hence this post Vegan Taco Soup ).
While I am savor these fleeting weeks of winter vacation and unstructured dinner times, I know that soon enough my kid will be in the car driving home from a long day of school and I’ll get peppered with the following questions/complaints.
Ingredients:
1 bag meatless crumbles
2 cups veggie broth
1 can of diced tomatoes (I used ro-tel with habaneros)
1 can of corn
2 tbs taco seasoning
1 jalapeno, sliced
optional: top with fat-free or non-dairy cheese
Vegan Taco Soup Directions:
Combine all ingredients in slow cooker. Cook on low for 2-4 hours. Soup is ready after about 2 hours, but can stay on for up to 4 hours.
Technically, the meatless crumbles are 1 point for 1 cup and taco seasoning does have points, but this soup makes 8 servings and uses less than 2 cups for the whole recipe (and such a small amount of seasoning), so the points would be like 1/4 point per serving. If you eat the whole thing it’s going to be more like 2 or 3 points.
Every kid loves a good bowl of soup and this Vegan Taco Soup is a Quick and Easy Back-to-School Dinner and one that the entire family will want to slurp on.
This recipe is one of my favorite ways to get your kids thinking about and eating meatless meals- and this Vegan Taco Soup is a Quick and Easy Back-to-School Dinner is also a GREAT meatless Monday dish and easier to whip up than you think!
