I normally prepare this delectable apple cheesecake in the autumn.

Ingredients
- 2 pounds lean ground beef
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 green bell pepper, diced

- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 4 cups water
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add ground beef; cook and stir until meat is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Drain and discard any excess grease.
- Heat olive oil in a soup pot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir green pepper in the hot oil until it starts to soften, 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce heat to low, stir in garlic, cumin, and chili powder, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Mix cooked ground beef and tomatoes into green bell pepper mixture, breaking up tomatoes with a spatula. Add 4 cups of water or enough to cover the ingredients, reduce heat to low, and simmer at least 2 hours to blend flavors.

I thought it was delicious; I omitted the green peppers since, it isn’t one of my families favorites…YES, the cumin and chili powder are reversed (easy fix) I always use more chili powder than whats called for. The recipe openly suggests to use whatever ingredients you may like; I did just that, I used kidney beans, black beans, Mexican corn, I cooked an onion in with the ground beef. Last but not least, a big squeeze of tomato paste from the tube…..: )
WHOA – before you make this – I think that the amount of cumin and chili powder is reversed. (I think it should be 3 T Chili Powder & 1 T Cumin) Besides that I think that this recipe needs onions -the bell pepper didn’t seem to fit quite right especially without the onion. I hope the submitter steps in and if the recipe is incorrect asks AR to correct it. In the meantime – beware and make the corrections yourself. *** UPDATE – there is no way you will need 4 cups of water unless you plan to cook this down all day or want Chili Soup.
