Ingredients

1 lb. lean ground beef
2 Tbs. taco seasoning from a packet or your own blend
1 tsp. oregano flakes
1 tsp. granulated onion or onion powder
3 cups beef broth
10 oz. red enchilada sauce mild or hot, depending on your heat preference
10 oz. can diced tomatoes and green chilies, may substitute diced tomatoes is the added green chilies make this soup too spicy with juices
15 oz. can black beans, may substitute any type of canned beans in this soup, or add a variety of different beans drained and rinsed
15 oz. can sweet corn drained
1 cup shredded Colby-Jack cheese or shredded cheddar cheese may substitute low-fat shredded cheese, if desired
¾ cup sour cream or low-fat sour cream room temperature
2 Tbs. cream cheese or 1/3 less fat cream cheese very softened

Instructions

In a 6-quart pot or Dutch oven over medium to medium high heat, cook and crumble the ground beef with the taco seasoning, oregano, and the garlic powder until the beef is fully cooked throughout; drain any fats that accumulate.
Add the beef broth, enchilada sauce, black beans, diced tomatoes and green chilies, and sweet corn; bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cooking the soup at a low simmer for 25-30 minutes.
In a medium size mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and the cream cheese. A little at a time, stir 1/2 cup of the warm soup into the cream cheese mixture until smooth, then add this mixture along with the shredded cheese to the soup pot, stirring to combine.
When the cream cheese mixture has incorporated smoothly into the soup, it's ready to serve! Garnish with your favorite toppings, such as chopped cilantro or crushed tortilla chips, etc.
