Instructions
  1. Spray a pot generously with non-stick cooking spray and set it over medium heat and allow it to get HOT. Add onion and green pepper and sautee until soft, about 3-ish minutes. Add garlic and sautee another minute or two.
  2. Add ground meat and brown, mixing onions, peppers and garlic into the meat mixture. Drain meat meat mixture if necessary (although if you use lean ground meat, the excess liquid should pretty much evaporate in the process). Add taco seasoning or spices (not both) and stir well.  
  3. Add tomatoes & chiles, salsa and black beans and mix well.  Add broth or water until desired amount of liquid is achieved (NOTE: for you this may not require the whole two cups called for in the ingredients. You want soup but you don’t want to dilute your spices too much!).
  4. Drop the heat down to medium-low, cover and let it come to a boil. Turn off the heat and allow it to sit covered for a few moments before serving in bowls with desired toppings!
