Taco Soup

Print Recipe

A comforting and versatile taco soup perfect for chilly nights, made with ground beef or turkey, beans, corn, and tomatoes.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef or turkey
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can corn, drained
  • 1 can diced tomatoes (14–15 oz)
  • 1 packet taco seasoning (about 1–1.25 oz)
  • 2 cups beef broth (or chicken/vegetable broth)
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • Optional toppings: sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, sliced avocado, lime wedges, tortilla chips

Instructions

  1. Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef or turkey and cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the pot and cook until softened, about 4–6 minutes.
  3. Stir in the black beans, corn, and diced tomatoes. Sprinkle taco seasoning over everything and add the beef broth. Mix well.
  4. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 20–30 minutes.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, or extra taco seasoning. Serve hot with optional toppings.

Notes

For a thicker soup, add a tablespoon of tomato paste or a half cup of salsa. For a vegetarian version, replace meat with extra beans and use vegetable broth.
