Green Chile Stew

Cold weather makes me want to make warm stuff, so here is one of our favorites!



1.5 lbs. ground beef OR cubed beef
28 oz. can diced tomatoes (or 2 cans of Rotel)
1 large onion, chunked
6 green chile, chunked
5 buillion cubes
1 cup dry pinto beans
1/2 c. rice
4 med. to large potatoes, peeled and chunked
3 med. carrots, sliced
salt and pepper to taste (add this at the beginning)


In deep pot brown meat. Add next six ingredients. Add enough water to cover the ingredients with at least one inch above ingredients. Cook on low to medium for 3-4 hours, stirring occasionally. Add rice and potatoes about 30 minutes before serving. Keep on eye on your water level. You may need to continue to add water throughout the cooking because it will evaporate and the beans and rice take up some of the water.


Serve with warmed tortillas.


Enjoy!
