Ingredients
  

For the Soup
  • 1 pound Ground Beef Substitute with ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option.
  • 1 cup Cheddar Cheese Substitute with Monterey Jack or pepper jack for a spicy kick.
  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese Essential for that creamy feel.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream Substitute with coconut cream for a dairy-free version.
  • 4 cups Beef Broth Chicken broth can be used as an alternative.
  • 2 tablespoons Chili Powder Adjust based on desired spice level.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Essential for robust taco taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder Enhances overall flavor profile.
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin A must for that Tex-Mex twist.
  • Salt Season to taste.
  • Pepper Season to taste.
Optional Toppings
  • Avocado Great for topping!
  • Jalapeños For extra heat.
  • Sour Cream Complementing the soup’s rich flavors.

Equipment

  • Large pot or Dutch oven

Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a splash of oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef, breaking it up and cooking for about 6-8 minutes until no longer pink.
  2. Once the beef is browned, drain excess fat if needed. Pour in the beef broth and heavy cream, stirring gently. Increase heat to medium-high and simmer for about 5 minutes.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low and mix in the cream cheese and cheddar cheese, stirring constantly until the cheeses are melted and the mixture is creamy, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Add chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix well and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
  5. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with toppings like avocado, jalapeños, or sour cream.

Notes

Soften cream cheese before adding to prevent clumps. Never let the soup boil after adding cream to maintain a silky texture.
