  4. 4. Stir in the bell peppers, 2 tablespoons of taco seasoning, chopped tomatoes, and water or stock, then bring to a boil.
  5. 5. Reduce to a simmer and cook about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens.

  8. 7. Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes until the cheese melts, then cool slightly and add your choice of garnishes.
