  • In a large skillet or dutch oven, brown your ground beef and diced onion over medium-high heat until cooked through. Drain fat.
  • To the meat in pan, add your green pepper, taco sauce(s), and chili beans
  • Simmer on low on your stovetop for about 45 minutes until flavors are blended, green pepper is tender, and mixture is bubbling, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove pot from heat and prepare to serve.
  • On plate, layer corn chips first, topped with meat mixture, then shredded cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, chopped avocado, diced onion, salsa, then sour cream. Looks yummy, right?! :) ENJOY!
