Preparation

Step 1

In a large pot, heat oil over medium-high heat; saute onion and garlic 5 minutes, or until tender. Add ground beef and brown 8 to 10 minutes, or until no pink remains; drain off excess liquid.

Add remaining ingredients; mix well.

Reduce heat to low and cover; simmer 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve immediately.
