Quickish Chili for Two

Looking for something easy to make that you don't have to go shopping for? Grab a few cans of stuff from your pantry, brown some meat, dump it all together and season to taste.
Minus having to wash ALL of the dishes in the house... >.< (insert irritation here)... this only took about 15 minutes to make. Delish and easy lunch, great for cold winter days.

1 can black beans (or any kind of beans really)
1 can stewed tomatoes with peppers (or without if you dont like spicy)
1/4 lb ground beef
spices such as garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, seasoning salt and black pepper
Shredded cheese, Doritos (optional)

Brown beef in skillet, drain. Season meat with cumin, garlic, onion, salt and pepper. Dump in cans of beans and tomatoes, let cook 5 minutes or so to bring up to boil. Should thicken with the bean juice but, if not, feel free to add a little corn starch mixed with water to thicken (or masa with water if you have it). Taste and re-season if necessary.
Top with shredded cheese and Doritos (Cheese is best but I happened to have Cool Ranch and it was good to). You could probably use corn chips too.
