Instructions
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat over medium heat and brown the ground beef until fully cooked, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Drain any excess fat.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot with the cooked beef. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their juice), beef broth, black beans, kidney beans, and frozen corn.
Add the chipotle chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Taste the soup and adjust seasonings as needed. Add a pinch more salt or spices if desired.
Ladle the hot soup into bowls. If using, top with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, fresh chopped cilantro, and a handful of crushed tortilla chips for added crunch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your hearty Dude Ranch Soup!
