Our Weight Watchers version of the soup has ground turkey- which is a leaner meat and the perfect solution when you're trying to cut fat.

3 Point Weight Watchers Taco Soup
This is one of those recipes that we love to make because it is so incredibly simple.
This soup goes perfectly into your meal plan each week as a starter for a meal, a great hearty lunch or even a smaller portion as a quick snack when you are feeling the need for a pick me up.
The Weight Watchers Taco Soup can be adapted easily to your family preferences with little variance in point calculations.
You may omit vegetables your family doesn't care for and replace with ones they do enjoy. It is also very simple to leave out the ground meat and add an extra can of beans to create a vegetarian dish that everyone will love.
You can also adapt this recipe and make it a Weight Watchers Crock Pot soup recipe too. Just brown the meat, combine all the ingredients in the crock pot, and slow cook for 4-6 hours.

It might take a little bit to load, but it doesn't clear for me when I hit print. I'd recommend trying again. Thanks and happy to have you here!
Judy says
Your recipe for Weight Watcher taco soup says that a 2 cup serving is 3 "Weight Watcher" points. The current Weight Watcher program is "Smart Points". So is it 3 Smart Points for a 2 cup serving? Smart Points are calculated with calories, and grams of saturated fat, sugar, and protein.
Cyndi says
I have the same question as Judy. I just joined WW under the new plan. I had an old WW chili recipe that gave it 3 points but nothing in the new app lists WW chili or soup for this few a points. It's more like 5-6.
Kathie says
if you enter this recipe into the weight watchers app, you will find it is now zero points on the new program. Provided you use 99% fat free ground turkey. Beans, corn, and all the veggies are now "free". Healthy and I can't wait to make it!
Jessica McCoy says
That's amazing and great information! Thanks!
