Ingredients

Scale

1 lb Ground beef
2 cans Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies
1 can Black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can Pinto beans, undrained
1 can Sweet golden corn
1 packet Taco seasoning
2 cups Beef broth

Instructions

Brown the ground beef in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until fully cooked.
Drain excess fat carefully from the pot.
Stir in the taco seasoning and a small splash of broth to coat the meat.
Add the undrained Rotel tomatoes, beans, corn, and remaining beef broth to the pot.
Stir gently to combine, ensuring any browned bits are scraped from the bottom.
Reduce heat to low and simmer for fifteen minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

Use ground turkey or chicken as a leaner meat substitute if preferred. Swap beef broth for vegetable broth to maintain flavor without red meat. The soup thickens as it sits, making it excellent for meal prep. Serve with toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, or cilantro.
