Ingredients

 1 pound ground beef or turkey  

 1 onion, chopped  

 2 cloves garlic, minced  

 1 packet taco seasoning, 1 oz  

 1 can black beans, 15 oz, drained and rinsed  

 1 can kidney beans, 15 oz, drained and rinsed  

 1 can corn, 15 oz, drained  

 1 can diced tomatoes, 14.5 oz, with juice  

 1 can tomato sauce, 8 oz  

 2 cups beef broth or chicken broth  

 1/2 tsp salt  

 1/4 tsp black pepper  

 1 tbsp olive oil  

Instructions

1. Sauté the Aromatics: Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until soft and translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.  

2. Brown the Meat: Add the ground beef or turkey to the pot. Cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until completely browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease if needed.  

3. Season: Sprinkle the packet of taco seasoning over the cooked meat and onions. Stir well to coat the meat evenly.  

4. Combine Ingredients: Pour in the black beans, kidney beans, corn, diced tomatoes (with their juices), tomato sauce, and beef or chicken broth. Season with salt and black pepper.  

5. Simmer: Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes so the flavors meld together beautifully.  

6. Serve: Ladle hot into bowls and top with crushed tortilla chips, sliced avocado, fresh cilantro, or sour cream as desired!
