Ingredients

2 teaspoons olive oil

1 pound extra lean ground beef
2 teaspoons seasoned salt
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons dried oregano

1 Heat olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, and jalapeños; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Break ground beef into small pieces; stir into pot. Cook and stir, breaking beef into smaller pieces, until beef is completely browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
