Ingredients
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 (15 1/2-ounce) can red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
• 6 tablespoons fat-free shredded cheddar cheese
• 3 scallions, thinly sliced
• Fat-free sour cream (optional)
• 2 teaspoons canola oil
• 1/2 pound ground lean beef (7% fat or less)
• 1/2 pound ground lean pork
• 1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 (14 1/2-ounce) can fire-roasted crushed tomatoes
• 1/4 cup water
• 2 tablespoons seeded and finely chopped jalapeno peppers (wear gloves to prevent irritation)


Directions
1.
