Instructions
Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 pound of ground beef to a large soup pot. Cook over medium heat until the beef is cooked through. If using high-fat content beef, drain the excess fat from the pot.
Once the beef is cooked, add 1 diced yellow onion and 4 cloves of minced garlic. Continue stirring and cooking until the onions are soft and translucent.
Add 1 cup frozen corn, 1 (15 ounce) can black beans (drained), 1 (15 ounce) can of pinto beans (drained), and 2 (10 ounce) cans of diced tomatoes with green chiles (with juices). Stir to combine.
Add 3 tablespoons tomato paste, 1 packet of taco seasoning (or one recipe homemade taco seasoning), 1 packet of ranch seasoning (or one recipe homemade ranch seasoning), and 2 cups water. Stir to combine.
Turn the heat up to medium-high and place a lid on top. Allow the soup to come up to a boil.
Once boiling, give it a stir, turn the heat down to medium-low, and let the soup simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasonings to your liking.
Serve hot with your favorite toppings.
