Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper chopped
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • (1) 15 ounce can black beans don't drain
  • 2 cups diced tomatoes fresh or canned
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1 packet taco seasoning (want to make homemade? see notes)

Instructions

  • Add ground beef, onion and pepper into large soup pot. Cook the ground beef until browned over medium high heat, about 5-10 minutes.
  • Add broth, black beans, diced tomatoes, corn and taco seasoning into pot. Simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Serve in bowls and add crushed tortilla chips, sour cream, avocado, cilantro and shredded cheese on top.

Notes

This recipe calls for 1 packet of taco seasoning. You can use the store bought version or you can make homemade taco seasoning. If you want to make it from scratch, here's the recipe I use. I like to triple (or more) this recipe and store in a glass spice jar. When a recipe calls for a taco packet, you will need 2 tablespoons of this homemade taco seasoning.
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
