Instructions
Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the pot. Cook it until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease if needed.
Stir in the taco seasoning and ranch seasoning mix, ensuring the beef is well-coated with spices.
Add the black beans, kidney beans, corn, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and beef broth to the pot. Stir everything together.
Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
Bring the soup to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Taste the soup and adjust seasoning as needed.
Serve hot, topped with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and tortilla chips on the side, if desired.
