Hearty, delicious and packed with flavor. I made this in the Instant Pot but stove top directions are also below. For spices, I added chili powder, paprika, garlic powder and cumin but feel free to add /substitute with your favorite spices.
Options:
Add in a packet of taco seasoning
Make it spicy by adding jalapeño, red pepper flakes or cayenne.
Add 2 different types of beans for variety (I used kidney and chili beans).
I added cubed pork shoulder for bigger chunks of meat.
Start with 1/2 cup of broth and add more as needed based on the amount of ingredients or desired consistency.
You can also add 1-2 bouillon cubes with water for the broth.
Make a double batch to meal prep for the week or freeze for later!
