Make this hearty, one-pot creamy cowboy soup for a satisfying meal. It combines ground beef, beans, corn, and potatoes in a rich, savory broth.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (10 ounce) can Rotel (diced tomatoes and green chilies), undrained
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Brown the ground beef in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Drain off any excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the diced tomatoes, black beans, kidney beans, Rotel, frozen corn, beef broth, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and black pepper.
  4. Add the diced potatoes to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  5. Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the heavy cream until fully combined and the soup is creamy.
  6. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve hot, topping each bowl with shredded cheddar cheese if desired.

Notes

  • For a slow cooker version, brown the beef and sauté the onion and garlic separately. Combine all ingredients except the heavy cream in the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours. Stir in the heavy cream during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
  • You can substitute the heavy cream with 1/2 cup of milk mixed with 1 tablespoon of cornstarch for a slightly lighter texture.
  • This soup freezes well; cool completely before transferring to an airtight container.
