RECIPE: CHILI

CHILI

 

I made chili last night and it came out so good i wanted to share how i made it. It was easy and frugal!

Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef

1/2 huge vidalia onion

1 green pepper

1 red pepper

packet of chili seasoning/mix

1 can diced tomatoes undrained

2 cans kidney beans undrained

ketchup

First i put some vegetable oil into the skillet and cooked the onion until translucent.

I then transfered them into a big pot.

Next i cooked the peppers until they still had a slight crunch and added them to the pot

(of course u can cook both together but i felt more comfortable cooking them seperate)

Then i cooked the ground beef until it was cooked through and used a slotted spoon to drain it as i added it to the pot.
I put the diced tomatoes, kidney beans and chili mix in next

I squeezed a generous amount of ketchup in (because thats what  my mom does and it makes the chili more sweet. thats how i like my chili, i dont eat it spicy)

I stirred everything and just let it cook low for about a half an hour while i put some easy add water to dry mix biscuits into the oven.

I served the chili with some mild chedder cheese and a scoop of sour cream on the top.

It was yummy and we all loved it!

I decided to add an extra can of kidney beans instead of just 1 because i wanted to stretch the chili out a bit. it was enough to feed 3 and there are leftovers!!
