Chili

This is a very simple recipe that does not require much work and you are always left with leftover for a few days. I make my chili mild, but it would be really easy to make your spicy if you wanted.

What you need:

Chili powder
1 8oz can tomato sauce or paste
1 12oz can stewed tomatoes
2 - 3 lb ground beef
1 12oz can Bush's Chili Beans
Chopped onion (optional)
Chopped green pepper (optional)
Chili mix (any chili mix will do; I have the kind I use pictured below)

Directions:

Brown ground beef.

In a large pot or crock pot mix brown ground beef and the Busk's Chili Beans together.

Mix in the tomato sauce/paste, stewed tomatoes, onion, and green pepper, mixing well after each new addition.

Mix in the chili mix stirring well and then salt and pepper to taste.

If you want spicy chili you can add some Cayenne pepper.

Simmer your chili on low heat stirring every so often. After about 1 hour of cook time taste the chili and add chili pepper, salt, or pepper to taste.

Let simmer for a few hours until you are ready to eat it.

Meal Idea:

This chili is good garnished with shredded cheese and sour cream. The chili is great lunch served with tortilla chip. The chili also makes a great dinner served with Corn Souffle (you can find the Corn Souffle recipe on another blog post).

Hope you enjoy it :)
