Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Large Skillet
  • Slow Cooker

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 onion diced
  • 1 green bell pepper diced
  • 1 red bell pepper diced
  • 14 ounces stewed tomatoes
  • 4 ounces green chiles
  • 1 ounce taco seasoning mix
  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 16 ounces frozen hashbrowns
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Place the hashbrowns in a bowl with half of the chopped red pepper, half of the chopped green pepper, half of the onion, and 1 cup of the cheese. Add 1 tbsp of the taco seasoning mix from the package and toss everything together. Set aside.
  • Saute the ground beef, onions, and reserved peppers in a large non-stick pan over medium high heat until the ground beef is cooked through and the vegetables are soft.

  • Cook on the low setting for 4-6 hours.
  • Top with tomatoes, avacados, salsa, guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese, and any other toppings you love!
