Roll beef into very small meatballs.

Remove meatballs from pot and add onions, green peppers and jalapenos.
Cook for 3-4 minutes, until veggies are softened.

Cook for 30 seconds.
Add diced tomatoes and beef stock and bring to a simmer.
Return meatballs to the chili, along with drained and rinsed beans.
Simmer for 8-10 minutes.
Taste and season with salt and pepper.
Serve with a big handful of cheddar cheese on top, sour cream, and diced scallions.
