Instructions
- Add ground beef, onion, green pepper and potatoes in a skillet over medium high heat and brown meat until cooked through, breaking meat up as small as possible along the way.
- Make a well in the ground beef to reveal some grease and add garlic and tomato paste, allowing to "fry" a bit before stirring throughout meat mixture.
- Tip pan to one side to allow grease to gather and dab a paper towel to remove "most" of the grease.
- Turn heat down to medium low. Add taco seasoning and water and simmer.
- For best results, stew meat for an hour or longer...adding more water as it evaporates. Adjust seasonings to taste.
- Serve hot with your favorite taco night fixin's.
