Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Add your ground beef, breaking it apart with a spatula. Season generously with kosher salt and black pepper. Cook for about 6-8 minutes until the beef is browned; then, add diced onion and sauté until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
  2. Once the ground beef and onions are cooked, carefully transfer the mixture into your slow cooker.
  3. To the slow cooker, add in beef stock, tomato sauce, black beans, and chopped bell peppers. Stir everything well to combine all the flavors.
  4. Set your slow cooker to HIGH and allow the soup to cook for about 3-4 hours, or on LOW for 8 hours.
  5. When ready to serve, ladle the hearty soup into bowls, then add a generous scoop of warm cooked rice to each bowl.
