Some suggest 2 cups water for crocking this dish)
Add chopped onions and green peppers to medium-large pan, sprayed with oil spray; cook until onions are translucent and peppers are soft. Add ground meat (mine was already cooked), garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper and saute until beef is thoroughly cooked and no longer pink.
Add in remaining ingredients and stir to combine.

This can be cooked in a crock pot on high for 4 hours or low for 6-8 hours.
Optional toppings: thinly sliced jalapeno peppers, shredded cheese, diced green onions, plain Greek yogurt.
Serving Size: makes 12 heaping ladle servings
