📝 Instructions

10 steps

1. Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat.

2. Add the ground beef to the pot and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Drain excess fat if needed, then set the beef aside.

3. In the same pot, add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.

4. Stir in the minced garlic and red bell pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

5. Return the cooked ground beef to the pot. Add the canned diced tomatoes, beef broth, diced potato, frozen corn, and frozen green beans.

6. Mix in the ground cumin, paprika, chili powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.

7. Bring the soup to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

8. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.

9. Remove the soup from heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.

10. Serve hot and enjoy!
