Notes

For extra flavor, consider using fire-roasted diced tomatoes and adding a squeeze of lime juice just before serving. You can also swap ground beef for ground turkey for a lighter version. Adjust the level of spices to suit your taste, and for a thicker consistency, let the soup simmer longer to reduce further.
