Taco Soup Recipe

by

Step 1: Brown the Meat

  1. Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add the ground beef (or turkey) and cook until browned, breaking it into crumbles with a spoon.
  3. Stir in the diced onion and cook for another 3-4 minutes until softened. Drain any excess grease if needed.

Step 2: Season the Meat

  1. Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the meat and onion mixture. Stir to coat evenly.
  2. Cook for 1-2 minutes to toast the spices and enhance their flavor.

Step 3: Combine the Ingredients

  1. Add the black beans, kidney beans, corn, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and broth to the pot.
  2. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 4: Simmer the Soup

  1. Bring the soup to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    • Pro Tip: The longer it simmers, the more the flavors meld together!

Step 5: Taste and Adjust

  1. Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if needed—add more salt, chili powder, or cumin to suit your preference.

Step 6: Serve and Garnish

  1. Ladle the soup into bowls.
  2. Top with your favorite garnishes like shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and crushed tortilla chips for crunch.
  3. Squeeze a lime wedge over the top for a bright, zesty finish.

Tips for Success

  • Vegetarian Option: Skip the meat and use vegetable broth for a vegetarian-friendly version.
  • Spice Level: Adjust the heat by using mild, medium, or hot taco seasoning and diced tomatoes.
  • Thicker Soup: For a heartier consistency, mash some of the beans or reduce the amount of broth.
