There is nothing quite like a big pot of taco soup on a chilly evening. It is a family favorite because it is so filling, simple to prepare, and tastes even better the next day after the flavors have had time to meld together.

My best tip for this recipe is to keep a few pantry staples on hand so you can whip this up whenever you need a quick dinner. You can easily adjust the spice level by choosing milder or hotter varieties of canned chilies to suit your family.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 can diced tomatoes with green chilies
  • 1 can tomato sauce
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • Optional toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, cilantro, or tortilla chips

Instructions

  1. 1

    Brown the ground beef and diced onion in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat until the meat is cooked through and the onion is soft.

  2. 2

    Drain any excess fat from the pot if needed.

  3. 3

    Stir in the taco seasoning and coat the beef thoroughly.

  4. 4

    Add the black beans, pinto beans, corn, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and beef broth to the pot.

  5. 5

    Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then turn the heat down to low.

  6. 6

    Simmer the soup for about 20 minutes to let the flavors combine.

  7. 7

    Serve warm with your favorite taco toppings.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. This soup also freezes beautifully if you want to save some for a busy week ahead. Serve it with a side of cornbread or extra tortilla chips for a little crunch.
