What you’ll need:

• 3 lbs Ground meat – we used 2 lbs ground beef and 1 lb ground pork

• 1 14.5 oz can diced Tomatoes
• 1 Jar of your favorite Salsa
• 1 medium Onion, diced
• 2 Jalapeños, diced
• 2 Bell Peppers – we used 1 orange and 1 yellow

• 1 Tsp Cayenne Pepper
• 1 Tsp Garlic Salt
• Ground Black Pepper to taste
• Salt to taste

Bring it all together:

Sautee onions, jalapenos, and bell peppers in oil until the onions become translucent. Add meat and cook thoroughly. Once the meat is cooked, add canned tomatoes, salsa, beans, and broth. Bring to boil; reduce heat. Add seasonings, stir until mixed. Simmer uncovered 45 minutes – 1 hour, stirring occasionally until desired consistency is reached. Add Reishi powder. Serve to taste with shredded cheese, sour cream, tortilla chips & cornbread!
