Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the rinsed and drained black beans, pinto beans, and kidney beans, along with the drained corn.

  5. Add the taco seasoning mix, chili powder, and ground cumin. Stir well.
  6. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 20-30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. The longer it simmers, the richer the flavor.
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
  8. Ladle the hot soup into bowls. Serve with your favorite taco toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, diced avocado, crushed tortilla chips, or fresh cilantro.

  • Adjust the consistency by adding more vegetable broth if you prefer a thinner soup.
  • Serve with warm cornbread or crusty bread for a complete meal.
