Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 can 15 ounces black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can 15 ounces corn, drained
  • 1 can 10 ounces red enchilada sauce
  • 1 can 14.5 ounces diced tomatoes with green chilies
  • 4 cups beef broth

Method
 

  1. In a large pot over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
  3. Stir in the black beans, corn, enchilada sauce, diced tomatoes, beef broth, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  4. Reduce heat and let the soup simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot, topped with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and fresh cilantro. Add tortilla chips for crunch.
