Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped onions
  • 1/2 cup chopped green peppers
  • 1 pound ground beef (I use organic, grass fed)
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 1 14.5oz can diced chilis and tomatoes
  • 4 oz tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream (optional for flavor)
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper (optional for spicy)

Instruction

  • I like to use a Dutch Oven so that I can cook the whole recipe using one pot. Heat a Dutch Oven on medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, onions, green peppers.
  • Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the onions are translucent and fragrant.
  • Add the ground beef and taco seasoning. Break down the ground beef using a meat chopper.
  • Cook for 3-4 minutes or until the ground beef is no longer pink. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
  • Add the broth, diced tomatoes and chilis, and tomato sauce to the pot and stir.
  • Lower the heat to Low. Cover the pot and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes.
  • Open the pot and pour in the heavy cream and stir. I like to taste repeatedly here and add salt and pepper as necessary.
  • Serve with toppings.
