Peel the russet potatoes and dice them into small cubes, about 1/2 inch in size. Set aside.
Dice the bell peppers and onion into small pieces, ensuring even sizes for consistent cooking.
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the cooked beef from the skillet and set aside, draining any excess grease if necessary.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and heat over medium heat.
Add the diced potatoes to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and turn golden brown, about 10 minutes.
Stir in the diced bell peppers and onions with the potatoes. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet. Sprinkle in the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients and distribute the seasonings evenly.
Reduce the heat to low and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
If desired, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the hash and let it melt before serving.
Serve immediately for a fresh meal, or portion into freezer-safe containers for OAMC (Once A Month Cooking). To reheat, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat in a skillet or microwave.
