1-Pot Irresistible Taco Soup Recipe
This Taco Soup simmers seasoned ground beef, two kinds of beans, corn, and tomatoes in a rich, lightly spicy broth, all in one pot. Toasting a quick homemade spice blend in the pan before adding any liquid is the small step that gives the soup real depth, and mashing a few beans thickens it naturally. Ready in about 40 minutes, it is an easy, crowd pleasing dinner that tastes even better the next day.
Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Brown beef with onion and drain excess fat.
- Add garlic and seasoning blend; stir 1 minute until fragrant.
- Stir in beans, corn, tomatoes, tomato sauce, and broth.
- Simmer uncovered 20 to 25 minutes until slightly thickened.
- Taste and adjust with salt and lime juice.
- Serve topped with cheese, sour cream, chips, avocado, and cilantro.
Toast the spices in the pan for a full minute before adding liquid; this one step is what gives the soup its deep, rounded flavor.
Notes
- Rinse the canned beans to remove excess sodium and starchy liquid.
- Simmer uncovered so the soup thickens and the flavors concentrate.
- Mash a handful of beans against the pot to thicken the broth naturally.
- A large, wide pot gives the beef room to brown properly.
