How to Make Beef And Black Bean Taco Filling

  1. In a large skillet, brown 1 lb ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add 1 tbsp cumin, 2 tbsp chili powder, and 1 tsp salt to the browned beef. Stir well to coat.
  3. Add 1 (15-ounce) can black beans (rinsed and drained), 1 (15-ounce) can diced tomatoes (undrained), 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper (any color), and 1/2 cup beef broth.
  4. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook for 30 minutes, or until the liquid is mostly absorbed and the flavors have melded. Stir occasionally.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more chili powder for extra heat or salt to taste.
  6. Serve immediately in your favorite tacos, taco salad, or burrito bowls. Garnish with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, or cilantro.
