This is a quick and delicious creamy taco soup that is also very flexible. You can make it as spicy or as mild as you like. We like it served over corn tortilla chips, and topped with some shredded cheese and a dollop of sour cream. It’s also low carb.

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 2 pounds ground beef

  • 1 cup diced onion

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin

  • 1 tablespoon chili powder

Directions

  1. Heat a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef, onion, and garlic in the hot pot until beef is browned and crumbly and onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease if necessary.
