Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef or turkey
  • 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (15 oz) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (15 oz) corn, drained

  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1 cup beef or chicken broth
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

Cooking
  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown the ground beef or turkey over medium heat until cooked through. Drain excess fat.
  2. Add diced onion and bell pepper, cooking for about 5 minutes, until softened.
  3. Stir in the taco seasoning to coat the mixture evenly.
  4. Add black beans, kidney beans, corn, diced tomatoes, and broth, mixing well to combine.
  5. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15–20 minutes to let the flavors meld.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve hot with toppings.

Notes

Feel free to add more vegetables like zucchini or corn for extra nutrition. Adjust the level of spiciness by using mild or hot taco seasoning. For a vegetarian version, omit the meat and add more beans or lentils. Leftover Taco Soup can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or can be frozen for up to 3 months.
