Saute a chopped onion in some oil, add garlic when almost done. I do this because if I start with garlic, I invariably burn it. When you smell the garlic (before it burns!) throw in approx 1 lb of your favorite ground meat. I usually use turkey, I like the texture better than ground beef. Haven't tried pork - do NOT use chicken. Stir and cook until it is cooked through. Add spices to taste (I use cumin, a hot chile molido that someone brought me from Santa Fe, oregano) then I add 2 cans of Ro-Tel Mexican Fiesta tomatoes (otherwise I'd use the regular Ro-Tel and add cilantro and lime juice). You can also toss in chopped fresh peppers to taste - jalapeno, habanero, whatever. I also add approx 1 cup frozen corn kernels and 1 can drained and rinsed beans (usually small white ones, but whatever) Simmer. Serve with rice if you want.
