Print Recipe
- 1 pound (500g) lean ground beef
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 4-5 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups (946ml) beef broth or stock
- 1 (15oz) (432g) can corn, drained
- 2 (15oz) (425g) cans chili beans in chili sauce (don't drain)
- 2 (14.5oz) (411g) petite diced tomatoes
- 1 (8oz) (226g) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 (4oz) (113g) chopped green chiles
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano, onion powder, and garlic powder
In a large dutch oven or pot brown the ground beef and onions until meat is no longer pink. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
Add remaining ingredients EXCEPT for cream cheese. Cover with lid and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the cream cheese. It will take a little bit for the cream cheese to incorporate. Serve with toppings of choice.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- FREEZER FRIENDLY: If planning to freeze DO NOT add the cream cheese. Freeze completely cooled soup in freezer safe containers for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Reheat gently on the stove top then stir in the cream cheese.
