INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef (93% lean)
1/2 cup Black Beans (low sodium, drained)
1/4 cup Reduced-Fat Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes
1/4 cup Diced Onion
1/4 cup Diced Bell Pepper
1 clove Minced Garlic
1 teaspoon Cumin Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground beef until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic to the pan and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, black beans, and cumin powder, then season with salt and pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes so the flavors meld together.
Transfer the mixture to a lightly greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese on top of the mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
