Taco Chilli

A big bowl of taco delightfulness without any of the less than healthy aspects of tacos such as tortilla, cheese, or source cream. Perfect for a voracious hiker after a freshly completed journey.

Ingredients

600g Lean Ground Beef
540ml Drained Black Beans (Canned)
1.5 cups Chopped, Fresh Sweet Peppers
1.5 cups Salsa
0.5 cups Hot Pepper Rings
4tsp Taco Seasoning

Brown ground beef in a skillet.
Add taco seasoning to beef and mix thoroughly.
Combine beef with beans, salsa, and hot pepper rings in a saucepan and simmer on medium for 5 minutes.
Add Sweet Peppers and simmer for 1 minute.

This recipe leaves plenty of room for adjustment. If you prefer a fiery chilli; use a spicier salsa and/or add in more potent peppers. If you would like more of a tangy flavour, add more hot pepper rings. Experiment to find the perfect blend to your taste.

Note: This recipe is sufficient for multiple people or more than one meal unless you are really hungry. In addition, if you want to drop the sodium content, simply use a lower sodium salsa as many salsas are heavily salted.
