Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes (with juice)
  • 1 (15-ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (10-ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chilies
  • 1 cup diced potatoes (peeled or unpeeled)
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup heavy cream or half-and-half
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Sliced green onions
  • Extra shredded cheese
  • Crushed tortilla chips

Instructions

  1. In a large pot over medium heat, brown the ground beef until it’s fully cooked. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the beef. Sauté for a few minutes until the onion is translucent.
  3. Pour in the beef broth, diced tomatoes with juice, corn, black beans, tomatoes with green chilies, and diced potatoes. Stir well to combine.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil. Lower the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream, smoked paprika, chili powder, ground cumin, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.
  6. Ladle the soup into bowls, and top with shredded cheddar cheese, sliced green onions, and crushed tortilla chips.

Notes

Feel free to swap ground beef for turkey or make it vegetarian by using beans instead. Serve with crusty bread or a fresh salad for balance.
