• 1 pound lean ground beef (at least 85%) or can substitute ground turkey breast
• 2 cans dark red kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
• 1 can black beans (drained and rinsed)
• 1 chipotle pepper in adobo

1. Brown meat over medium-high heat in a heavy stock pot or enameled cast-iron Dutch oven. Salt a little while cooking. Drain excess fast except 1 tablespoon.
2. Add onion, peppers, garlic and a sprinkling of salt and cook until all vegetables are tender.
3. Mix spices in a small bowl and shake 2/3 of it over the meat/vegetable mixture, stir and cook for a minute
4. Add tomatoes, stir and bring to a slight boil then medium-low simmer.
5. Taste after 15 minutes of simmering and add the rest of the spices and hot sauce (about 12 shakes)
6. Simmer down now for about 10-15 minutes more and rnstir in rinsed and drained beans, stir and simmer till beans are warmed through
7. TASTE. You'll find that the beans have zapped some of the flavor, so you may need to add more spice (especially cumin) to your liking. Add juice of 1 lime and simmer 10 more minutes.
8. Ladle into bowls and garnish with a few dashes of hot sauce, sharp cheddar cheese, cilantro, and/or crushed corn tortillas. Enjoy.
