Instructions
- Cook the potatoes: To a large pot, over medium-high heat, add the avocado oil and heat until shiny. Cook the potatoes and onion for about 3 minutes, until the onion is softened.

- How to serve: Serve with cilantro, avocado and additional lime juice and sour cream, if desired.
Notes
- Slow Cooker Instructions: If using, complete steps 1-3 of the recipe. Add the meat mixture to the slow cooker, along with the beans, tomatoes, and lime juice. Top with the broth and give it a good stir. Cook on high for 3-4 hours.
- Storage: Store the soup in the refrigerator for 4-5 days, or in the freezer for up to 4 months.
