Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 1 can (10 ounces) diced tomatoes with green chilies (Rotel)
• 1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
• 4 cups beef broth
• 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 can (15 ounces) pinto beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup frozen corn
• 0.25 cup cilantro, chopped (optional for garnish)
• 1 packet (1 ounce) taco seasoning
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional for topping)
• 0.5 cup sour cream (optional for topping)
• 2 cups tortilla chips (optional for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Add the ground beef to the pot and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat and set the beef aside.

Step 3

In the same pot, add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Return the browned ground beef to the pot. Add the taco seasoning and ground cumin, stirring to coat the beef and onion mixture.

Step 5

Pour in the beef broth, diced tomatoes with green chilies, tomato sauce, black beans, and pinto beans. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Add the frozen corn, salt, and black pepper. Bring the soup to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if needed (add more salt, pepper, or spices as desired).

Step 8

Serve hot, garnished with chopped cilantro, shredded cheddar cheese, and sour cream, if desired. Serve with tortilla chips on the side for added crunch.
