Preparation: In fry pan stir in ground beef, bell pepper and cook on med. high heat until beef looses its pink color and bell pepper is soft. Remove excess grease. Turn temperature down to medium or medium low . Add remaining ingredients, stir and cook together until ground beef is completely cooked and liquid is gone about 25 - 35 min.
