Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 lbs ground beef
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp each cumin and garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika, onion powder and salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 yellow onion chopped
  • 2 bell peppers chopped
  • 4 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 2 cups cauliflower rice
  • 15 oz can petite diced tomatoes
  • 4 oz can green chilies
  • ¼ cup tomato paste
  • Cilantro avocado and/or sour cream (optional for garnish)

Instructions
 

  • In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the beef and season with the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Crumble the beef as it cooks.
  • Once the beef is browned, add the onion and peppers and saute for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
  • Add the broth, cauliflower rice, diced tomatoes, green chilies, and tomato paste and stir. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Serve garnished with your favorite taco soup toppings!

Notes

  1. The soup keeps well in the fridge for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. 
  2. You can use any color bell peppers, I used green and red. 
  3. Feel free to use fresh tomatoes if desired, about 1 ½ cups. 
  4. Please note you don’t need to drain the tomatoes or chilies, the liquid from the can adds so much flavor! 
  5. You can use regular beef broth instead of low-sodium, but I would wait to add the salt until the end. Try the soup first to make sure you don’t overdo the salt.
