Step 1

Cook the ground beef in a large stew pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Break the meat into smaller crumbles while it cooks. It should be ready when there’s no pink left.

Step 2

Drain the grease from the pot. Then, mix in the taco seasoning until the meat is well-coated.

Step 3

Add the rest of the ingredients, stirring regularly. Bring the soup to a boil. Then, reduce the heat so the soup continues to simmer but doesn’t boil over. Do not cover the pot.

Step 4

Let it simmer for approximately 15 minutes more. Stir occasionally. Once the soup is heated through, it’s ready to serve.
