Step 6

Pour in the beef broth, stirring until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 7

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 8

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 9

Taste and adjust the seasonings, if necessary.

Ladle the taco soup into bowls and serve hot with optional toppings such as shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream, chopped cilantro, and tortilla chips for added crunch.
