- 1 Red Bell Pepper, seeded and chopped
- 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce & 2 extra teaspoons of adobo sauce
- 16 ounces ground bison
- 2 teaspoons ground coriander

Method
Step 1
In a large pot, add white onion, oil and garlic and mix thoroughly until the onion softens and the raw fragrance of garlic disappears. Then, add all ingredients except coffee, spinach (if using), and kidney beans in the order listed above, mixing between each.
Step 2
Mix thoroughly so that the spices are well combined with the bison and the bison is cooked through. This will take about 7-10 minutes. Then, add coffee, spinach, and beans. Mix again.
Step 3
Cover pot with lid and bring to a boil until it reaches a simmer and the beans are soft and cooked through. Adjust salt per taste.
Step 4
Once done, top with shredded cheddar, sour cream, scallions & lime for garnish.
