Tex-Mex Beef & Bell Pepper Grain Bowls

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan (for 4 servings, use a large, high- sided pan) over medium-high heat. Add beef* and cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned, 3-5 minutes. • Add bell pepper, Mexican Spice Blend, and 1⁄2 tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4). Stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until bell pepper begins to soften and beef is cooked through, 2-3 minutes. TIP: If there’s excess grease in your pan, carefully pour it out. • Stir in Tex-Mex paste until combined. Cook, stirring occasionally, until bell pepper is tender, 2-3 minutes more. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.
