4 servings
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp taco seasoning
- 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, with juices
- 1 can (10 oz) diced tomatoes with green chiles
- 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Chef's tipUse the same amount of low-sodium vegetable broth. The dish will be a little lighter in flavor than with chicken broth. - 8 oz rotini or penne pasta
- 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Chef's tipIf the dish is baked or melted, cover it or keep the heat gentle - dairy-free shreds melt more slowly than dairy cheese. - salt and pepper, to taste
For serving
- sour cream, for serving (optional)
- fresh cilantro, chopped, for serving (optional)
- sliced jalapeño, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and no pink remains, about 6–8 minutes, reaching an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Drain off excess fat using a colander, then return the beef to the pot.

Reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion and bell pepper to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and the onion is translucent, about 4–5 minutes.
