Taco Beef Soup

Taco Beef Soup


 

We love to eat tacos, but sometimes I like to serve them in a completely different way.  When the weather is turning colder, I start making more soups.  Taco Beef Soup has the great taste of tacos, but served in a bowl. 

Ingredients

1 lb. ground beef
1 onion, diced
1 or 2 jalapeno peppers, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp. cumin
2 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. crushed red pepper
3 1/2 c. crushed tomatoes or 2 (14 oz.) cans crushed tomatoes with chilies
1 3/4 c. beef broth
salt and pepper to taste
1 (28 oz.) can black beans or chili beans
1 c. whole kernel corn

Directions

In a Dutch Oven, add ground beef, onion, jalapeno peppers, and garlic. Cook until beef is no longer pink. This takes about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain off excess grease.

Add cumin, chili powder, paprika, and crushed red pepper flakes. Mix well.

Stir in the crushed tomatoes and beef broth.  Cover and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.  

Stir in black beans and corn.  Cover and simmer for a couple of minutes, or until everything is bubbling and heated through.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve.  Top with tortilla chips, sour cream, or shredded cheddar cheese.
