Chili Recipe
I made up a recipe for chili last weekend, and it actually turned out really well, so I thought I’d post it here. It’s pretty fast and really simple.
This recipe makes about 4 good-sized meals.
h2. Ingredients
- 1-ish lb ground beef (I used 90% lean beef; you can use whatever you like.)
- Packet of chili seasoning
- 32 oz (2 cans) Bush’s Best Chili Beans, medium sauce
- 14.5 oz (1 can) Hunt’s stewed tomatoes (I’ll probably use two cans of these next time.)
- 15 oz (1 can) corn
- Any other random vegetables you want (bell peppers, etc.)
- Spices: chili powder, ground red cayenne pepper, cumin
Directions
Defrost the beef and start cooking it in a pan. Add the packet of chili seasoning when the beef is almost done.
While the beef is cooking, dump all the cans of beans, vegetables, etc. into a large pot and start heating it.
If you timed it right, the beef will be done cooking just as the pot of vegetables starts boiling.
Mix the beef into the pot of canned stuff. Add plenty of chili powder, a lot of cumin, and a little red cayenne powder to taste. (Note: ground red cayenne pepper is really spicy, even if you really like spicy foods. Go easy on it at first, anyway. Trust me.)
Then wait for the chili to cool to a reasonable temperature, add more chili powder, and eat it.
