Not Tacos: Taco-Adjacent Recipes That Rule

From the best taco seasoning ever—we even rounded up 10 ways to use it!—to a deeply all-American, salsa-and-sour cream dressed taco salad, these taco-related recipes are every bit as awesome as the more classic taco recipes that inspired them.

  • Homemade Taco Seasoning. Smokey and savory, with a satisfying mild heat, our homemade taco seasoning is an adaptable, simple way to turn a ho-hum dinner into a “make again, please!”.

  • Taco Salad. The best taco salad recipe starts with seasoned beef and gets better from there, with toppings piled high—beans, corn, cheese, avocado and chips. Finish it off with taco salad dressing and DIG IN!

  • Taco Soup. What’s easier than taco night? Taco SOUP night! Rather than fussing around with warming tortillas in one pan, and seasoned beef sizzling in another, we’ve taken the ease of taco night and made it even better by soupifying it!

  • Crock-Pot Taco Meat. Just three-ingredients and the use of our trusty slow-cooker make this Crock-Pot taco meat recipe an easy win.

  • Crock-Pot Chicken Taco Meat. A shredded chicken taco feast is even easier to make than you think. Like, three ingredients easy.
