  • 1 Tbsp chili powder

  • 1 tsp Mexican oregano
  • 1 Tbsp canola oil
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 3 carrots, sliced
  • 2 15-oz cans kidney beans, rinsed and drained

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl stir together the chili powder, cumin and oregano. Set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat add the oil and ground beef. Season with salt and pepper and break apart with a wooden spoon. Brown the meat and cook until mostly cooked through, about 5 minutes total. Transfer the meat to your slow cooker.

Notes

This hearty stew is perfect for rainy days.
We add the cabbage at the end to make sure it doesn't become stringy or overcooked.
