Add beef and taco seasoning, breaking up the beef with the back of the spoon.  Cook until most of the beef is browned, about another 5 minutes.  Drain excess grease.

Add the potatoes and broth, cover and reduce heat to low.  Cook about 15 more minuets, until potatoes are tender.  Season further to taste.
