This is a recipe I made up using leftovers, but I think you could just go ahead and season each layer. For the ground beef, I just used taco seasoning; for the black beans, they are flavored with salt, pepper, granulated garlic, granulated onion, cumin, chili powder, juice of three small limes, and a handful of chopped cilantro.

Cilantro and lime beef taco soup

Dd and I made up a soup tonight with leftovers. It's a taco-type soup. We had seasoned taco meat and cilantro and lime black beans in the freezer and to that we added chicken broth, tomatoes and peppers (Rotel), corn, more lime and seasoned it with salt, pepper, garlic, onion, chili powder and cumin. We topped it with cheddar cheese and tortilla chips. It was incredibly yummy. We definitely will make it again!
