Instructions

  1. Saute onion in oil in a large skillet over medium low heat until translucent. Add jalapeno and cook about 10 minutes more. Remove onion and peppers and set aside.

  2. Raise heat to medium and quickly brown ground beef. Drain off fat and return onions and peppers. Add tomatoes, garlic, bouillon, salt and pepper to taste.

  3. Saute over low heat for 15 minutes.

  4. This can also be prepared using beef broth rather than the bouillon. You would add it at the same time, just cook until desired consistency.
