• 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp Taco seasoning (store-bought or homemade)

Directions

Step 1

In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, brown the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it apart with a spoon until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess grease if needed.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the pot. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and taco seasoning. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Pour in the beef broth and add the diced tomatoes with green chilies. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 5

Add the frozen corn to the pot. Cover and let the soup simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes.

Step 6

Stir in the softened cream cheese, a few cubes at a time, until fully melted and incorporated into the soup.

Step 7

Add the shredded cheddar cheese and stir until melted. Pour in the heavy cream and mix well. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper, if needed.

Step 8

Remove the soup from heat and let it sit for a few minutes to thicken slightly.

Step 9

Ladle the soup into bowls and top with crushed tortilla chips and chopped fresh cilantro for garnish before serving.
