Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
1 carton beef broth
1 can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 can whole kernel corn, drained
1 can diced tomatoes with green chiles
3 potatoes, diced
1 medium onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp paprika
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
1. Brown the Beef & Onion: In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil, diced onion, and ground beef. Cook until the beef is fully browned and crumbled, and the onions are soft and translucent (drain any excess grease if desired).
2. Combine in the Crockpot: Transfer the cooked beef and onion mixture into your slow cooker.
3. Add Remaining Ingredients: Add the diced potatoes, drained kidney beans, pinto beans, whole kernel corn, and diced tomatoes with green chiles. Pour in the entire carton of beef broth.
4. Season: Sprinkle in the chili powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir everything together until well combined.
5. Slow Cook: Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours, until the potatoes are fork-tender and the flavors have deeply melded together.
6. Garnish & Serve: Stir in the freshly chopped parsley just before serving. Ladle hot into bowls and enjoy your cozy cowboy soup!
