How to Make Vegetarian Taco Soup in a Pressure Cooker?
This taco soup is made with basic ingredients in your kitchen: canned black beans, frozen corn, and canned diced tomatoes. I always have some veggies in the refrigerator that can be added to the soup, such as bell peppers and onions. This is an easy dump-and-go taco soup recipe. Add the ingredients to the pot in order, and you don’t even need to stir them. I used canned black beans in this recipe, however, you can also pre-cook black beans in the pressure cooker and then use them in this recipe. Set your pressure cooker to pressure cook for 6 minutes and then let the pressure release naturally. I used store-bought taco seasoning in this recipe, however, check the recipe notes for using basic spices in place of taco seasoning. Look at that ladleful of goodness. Pretty darn good for no prep at all! Now comes my favorite part: the toppings! Here are some ideas:
Shredded cheddar cheese or Mexican blend. Sliced or cut avocado Diced red onions A dollop of sour cream or plain Greek yogurt (or vegan coconut yogurt) Tortilla chips to get the extra crunch Sliced jalapeños for the extra heat
Create a topping bar and let family or friends pick and choose the toppings. They will love it!
How to store Taco Soup?
