Cooking Steps

  • In a large pot over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked and drain any excess fat.
  • Pour in the water and sprinkle the taco seasoning over the beef, simmering for about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the Salsa Con Queso, cream of potato soup, sour cream, beef broth, chicken broth, diced chiles, and frozen corn, mixing well.
  • Stir the mixture and allow it to simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Serve hot in bowls and add your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, fresh cilantro, or crispy tortilla chips.

Notes

Opt for lean ground beef to reduce excess grease. Add more diced green chiles for heat and simmer uncovered for a thicker consistency.
