Easy Cuban Beef Picadillo!

Another Sunday Meal Prep idea! 😋
This Cuban Beef Picadillo is so good! All the ingredients in here really come together making it super flavorful! 💃🏽
I paired it with brown rice because the Picadillo can mask the bland flavor that brown rice has at times but you can also use tortilla. 😉
Ingredients ✍🏾
1 Lb. Ground Beef (or Ground Turkey)
1/3 Cup Onion diced
1/4 Cup Green Bell Pepper diced
1/4 Cup Cilantro chopped
2 Cloves of Garlic
1 Small Tomato diced
1/4 Cup Spanish Green Olives
1/2 Tbsp Salt
1/2 Tsp Pepper
1 Tsp Cumin
1/2 Can Tomato Sauce (4 oz)
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
1-2 Bay leaf
1/4 cup water
Directions 👩🏽‍🍳
✨ 1. Heat olive oil in a pan on low to medium heat. Once the oil is warm add onion, green pepper, cilantro, garlic, and diced tomato to the pan and cook on low until soft.
✨ 2. Add ground beef to the pan. Break up the meat and cook until no longer pink inside. I cover mine so it cooks faster.
✨ 3. Drain the excess liquid. I use the lid and tilt it over the sink. Be careful.
✨ 4. Then add the tomato sauce, olives, water, and bay leaf to the pan. Stir together. Cover and simmer on low for 25 min.
✨6. Serve with rice or tortilla.
