Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 lb ground beef (or ground turkey)
  • 1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 can (15 oz) kidney beans, rinsed and drained

  • 1 packet taco seasoning (or homemade blend)
  • 4 cups beef or chicken broth
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Optional toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, cilantro, tortilla chips

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté until fragrant.
  2. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon.
  3. Stir in taco seasoning, salt, and pepper; mix well.
  4. Add black beans, kidney beans, corn, crushed tomatoes, and broth. Stir to combine.
  5. Simmer for 20–25 minutes on medium heat, stirring occasionally.

Make it vegetarian by skipping the beef and adding extra beans. Freezer-friendly up to 2 months. Slow cooker option: brown beef first, then cook on low for 6 hours.
