Ingredients
- 0.5 lb ground beef
- Kosher salt and ground pepper to taste

- 2/3 cup black beans drained and rinsed
- 1/4 cup red onion finely diced

Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground meat and cook, mincing it with a wooden spoon as it browns. About 3-4 minutes.

- Serve warm with corn chips and enjoy!
