Hidden Veggie Chipotle Taco Meat

• 1 pound ground beef grass-fed and organic, if possible
• 1 red bell pepper minced
• 1 zucchini small, minced
• 2 tablespoons dried minced onion or 1/2 cup fresh chopped onion
• 8 ounces tomato sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon chipotle chile powder or 1- 2 chopped, seeds removed chipot
• 4 ounces diced green chiles
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
• 15 ounces black beans drained and rinsed
• 1 cup frozen corn
• 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro

1. Brown ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Meanwhile, mince vegetables (food processor is really nice for this). When the beef is almost cooked through, add the minced pepper and zucchini. Cook for 3-4 more minutes until some of the liquid cooks out and the beef is cooked through.
3. Add diced onion, tomato sauce, chipotle powder, diced green chiles, salt, pepper, beans, corn, and 1/2 cup water. Cook another 4-5 minutes until about half of the liquid has cooked out and mixture is nice and saucy.
4. Stir in cilantro and keep warm until ready to serve.
