Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef 80/20

- ¾ cup frozen corn kernels
- ½ green bell pepper diced
- 1 ounce taco seasoning 1 packet, or 2 tablespoons homemade
Instructions
- In a large pot, brown ground beef and onion over medium-high heat until no pink remains, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess fat.
- Add broth, beans, Rotel tomatoes with juices, tomato sauce, green chiles, broth, corn, green pepper, and taco seasoning. Stir to combine.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook uncovered for 15-20 minutes or until slightly thickened and the vegetables are tender.

Notes
- Ground beef can be replaced with ground chicken or turkey.
- This soup is great served with a topping bar. Add cheese, sour cream, diced tomatoes, green onions, and sliced jalapenos, and let everyone dress their own bowl.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat on the stovetop. Freeze in individual portions or in a zippered bag for up to 4 months. Thaw and reheat on the stovetop.
