Ingredients

Scale

Meat and Seasonings

  • 1 lb ground beef (browned)
  • 2 Tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper

Vegetables and Beans

  • ½ onion (diced)
  • 1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
  • 1 can black beans (15 oz, drained and rinsed)
  • 1 can kidney beans (15 oz, drained and rinsed)
  • 1 can crushed tomatoes (15 oz)

Liquids

  • 3 cups beef broth

Grains

  • 1 cup uncooked rice

Instructions

  1. Brown the Ground Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned. Drain excess fat to reduce greasiness.
  2. Prepare the Slow Cooker: Add the browned beef to the crock pot. Then add taco seasoning, garlic salt, salt, pepper, and diced onion.
  3. Add Vegetables and Beans: Pour in the corn, black beans, kidney beans, and crushed tomatoes.
  4. Add Rice and Broth: Stir in the uncooked rice and pour in the 3 cups of beef broth to provide the cooking liquid.
  5. Cook the Soup: Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours until rice is tender and all flavors have melded.
  6. Final Stir and Serve: Give the soup a good stir, adjust seasoning if necessary, and serve hot with optional toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, or chopped cilantro.

Notes

  • You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
  • If you prefer a spicier soup, add jalapeños or extra taco seasoning.
  • Make sure to rinse beans to reduce sodium content.
  • Leftovers store well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • For a vegetarian version, omit the beef and use vegetable broth with extra beans and vegetables.
