Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Drain beans.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green portions separate.

    Stem poblano pepper, seed, and cut into 1/2" dice. Poblano peppers can vary in spice level; most are mild, but a few can be quite hot. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping.

  2. 2

    Cook the Beef Mixture

    Place a medium pot over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add ground beef, chile and cumin rub, white portions of green onions, poblanos (to taste), and garlic salt to hot pot. Break up meat until no pink remains, vegetables are tender, and beef reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Tomatoes

    Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir tomatoes, beans, and 1 1/2 cups water into hot pot until combined. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, cover and stir occasionally until slightly thickened, 15-20 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

  4. 4

    Add the Cheese

    Stir in hot sauce (to taste), cream cheese, and half the shredded cheese (reserve remaining for garnish) until melted and combined.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, garnishing with green portions of green onions and remaining shredded cheese. Bon appétit!
