This unique soup is packed with all the ingredients of a traditional Mexican taco. It includes ground beef, three types of canned beans—kidney, pinto, and black beans—canned corn, tomatoes, chili peppers, and spices. The ground beef cooks in minutes, so by the time the rest of the ingredients are heated through, the soup is ready. Serve each serving with the most popular taco toppings: sour cream, shredded cheese, and pico de gallo salsa, made with chopped tomatoes, chili peppers, and herbs. Serve with tortilla chips, if desired.
