Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. Brown the ground beef in a large pot over medium heat. Drain off any excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
