Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 small jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
  • 1 pound hot Italian sausage
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder

Instructions
1
Preheat a large cooking vessel over medium heat; warm olive oil and sauté the onion, bell pepper, and jalapeno until the onion becomes transparent, approximately 10 minutes. Introduce sausage and ground beef into the mixture; continue to cook and stir until the meat is nicely browned, about 7 minutes. Remove excess fat from the pot.
