1). Heat oil in a large pan over medium-high heat until simmering.
2). Lightly brown venison (about 5 minutes) in pan.
3). Chop up orange bell pepper and garlic cloves.
4). Combine and evenly stir in all ingredients in crock pot.
5). Slow cook on low for 3 hours.
​6). Serve up about two cups per person to enjoy slowly and mindfully until 80% full.
7). Portion the remaining out into single-serve food storage containers and place and refrigerator or freezer to enjoy at a later time.

**Pro Tip** - When choosing your ground meat, aim for 90-95% lean. This recipe is not only great with ground wild Venison, but Bison, Grass Fed Beef, and Turkey as well! Or, with no meat at all, for our veggie lovers - just double the amount of Kidney and Black Beans!
