INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef (90% lean)
1/2 cup Black Beans
1/4 cup Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Onion
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
Spices (Cumin, Chili Powder, Salt, and Pepper) to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, red bell pepper, and garlic. Sauté until onions become translucent and vegetables soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until the beef is browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Season with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper as it cooks.
Stir in the diced tomatoes and black beans. Let the mixture simmer for 3 minutes to blend the flavors.
Transfer the beef and bean mixture into a baking dish. Sprinkle the reduced-fat cheddar cheese evenly on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
