Great recipe from Ellie Krieger...
 

1 Tbs 

 

olive oil

 

1 medium 

 

onion, diced (1 cup)

 

1 medium 

 

red bell pepper, diced (1 cup)

 

2 medium 

 

carrots, diced (1/2 cup)

 

2 tsp 

 

ground cumin

 

1 lb 

 

extra- lean ground beef (90% lean)

 

28 ounce 

 

can crushed tomatoes

 

2 cups 

 

water

 

1 canned 

 

chipotle chile in adobo sauce, seeded and minced

 

2 tsp 

 

adobo sauce from the can of chipotles

Heat oil in large pot or Dutch oven over moderate heat. Add the onion, bell pepper and carrots, cover and cook, stirring occasionally until the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes. Add cumin and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add ground beef; raise the heat to high and cook, breaking up the meat with a spoon, until the meat is no longer pink. Stir in the tomatoes, water, chipotle and adobo sauce, oregano and salt and pepper. Cook, partially covered, stirring from time to time, for 30 minutes. Stir in the beans and continue cooking, partially covered, 20 minutes longer. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
