Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 1 15 ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 15 ounce can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 15 ounce can corn, drained

Instructions
 

  • Brown ground beef in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  • Add chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in black beans, kidney beans, corn, diced tomatoes and green chilies, tomato sauce, taco seasoning, and beef broth.
  • Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20-30 minutes, or until flavors have melded.
  • Ladle soup into bowls and top with Fritos, shredded cheese, sour cream, and green onions, as desired.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Protein: Ground turkey, shredded chicken, or vegetarian crumbles can be substituted for ground beef.
  • Beans: Feel free to use your favorite beans! Pinto beans, chili beans, or even great northern beans would work well.
  • Vegetables: Add other vegetables like diced bell peppers, zucchini, or celery for extra nutrients and flavor.
  • Tomatoes: If you don't have diced tomatoes and green chilies, use a can of plain diced tomatoes and add a pinch of chili powder and a dash of hot sauce.
  • Vegetarian/Vegan: Omit the ground beef or substitute with a plant-based ground meat alternative. Ensure your taco seasoning and broth are also vegetarian/vegan-friendly.
  • Spicy: Add a chopped jalapeno or serrano pepper (with seeds removed for less heat) for a spicier soup.
