Notes
- Make in a slow cooker: Brown the ground beef on the stovetop, then drain off fat. Add the cooked beef and the remaining ingredients (except cilantro) to a slow cooker. Cook on low for 3-4 hours. Then stir in the fresh cilantro.
- Make it in an instant pot: Mix the cooked ground beef and remaining ingredients in the instant pot, then pressure cook for 8 minutes. Natural release for 8 minutes.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The leftover soup is delicious the next day, but the soup will thicken slightly as it sits.
