Cooking
  1. In a large pot, start by browning the ground beef or turkey over medium heat.

  3. Drain any excess fat to keep your soup light and healthy.
  4. Now, stir in the black beans, corn, both cans of diced tomatoes, taco seasoning, and broth. Mix everything together well.
  5. Increase the heat to bring your mixture to a boil, then reduce it and let it simmer for about 20–30 minutes.
  6. Before serving, taste the soup and add salt and pepper as needed.
  7. Serve hot with optional toppings like sour cream, cheese, and tortilla chips.
