Ingredients:

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 green pepper, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cups cabbage, shredded
  • 1 can (15 oz) pinto beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups frozen corn
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
  • 3 tbsp beef bouillon granules
  • 2 cups water
  • 6 tsp dried parsley
  • 6 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp mild chili powder
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tsp salt

Instructions:

  1. Brown Beef and Vegetables:

    • In a large skillet, brown the lean ground beef with the chopped onions and diced green pepper until the meat is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
  2. Combine Ingredients in Soup Pot:

    • Transfer the cooked ground beef mixture into a large soup pot. Add the shredded cabbage, drained pinto beans, frozen corn, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef bouillon granules, water, dried parsley, garlic powder, ground cumin, mild chili powder, sugar, and salt.
  3. Simmer:

    • Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 60 minutes, or until all the vegetables are tender and the flavors are well combined. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Serve:

    • Ladle the Mexican Minestrone into soup bowls. Optionally, top each serving with corn chips for added texture and flavor.

This Mexican Minestrone soup is hearty and flavorful, combining the richness of ground beef with the sweetness of corn and the tanginess of tomatoes. It’s perfect for a quick and easy meal, especially for potlucks or gatherings where you want to impress with a delicious, spicy soup that warms you up from the inside out.
