Cuban Picadillo

1: In a large pot or dutch oven, heat up the olive oil to medium high heat and cook the onions until translucent (5-7 minutes).

2: Add the peppers and garlic and cook for another five minutes.

3: Remove everything from the pot and set it aside.

4: Brown the ground beef using a wooden spoon to break the meat apart and avoid big chunks. Cook until there's no more water at the bottom of the pot and the beef is brown (about 10 minutes).

5: Add the onion mixture, seasoning, the diced tomatoes, and the tomato paste to the beef mixture.

6: Mix, cover, and let simmer for 30-35 minutes on low heat.

7: Uncover, add the olives, and simmer for another 5 minutes.
