Chili Recipe

The temps are cooling down so we made chili last night. In need of a chili recipe? Here’s the one I use.

2 lb ground beef

2 small green peppers

1 small yellow onion

2 15 oz cans Diced Tomatoes

15 oz can Tomato Sauce

6 oz can Tomato Paste

15 oz water

2 15 oz cans kidney beans (drained & rinsed)

3 tbsp chili powder

2 tbsp garlic powder

2 tbsp onion powder

3 tbsp cumin

1 tbsp paprika

1 tsp chipotle powder

½ tsp cayenne

½ tbsp salt

1 tsp white pepper

1 tsp baking soda

*instead of using these seasonings I use my homemade taco seasoning but taste great with these seasonings too!*

In a large pot, saute diced peppers and onions until translucent and they start to caramelize.

Add seasonings (minus the baking soda) and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring continuously. Make sure they don’t burn.

Add ground meat and brown until just done. It’s okay if it still has some pink in it before you add the rest of the ingredients.

Pour in the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, water, and tomato paste.

Bring to a simmer over medium low heat and cook for about 15 minutes. Then add the drained beans.

Stir in the baking soda. The sauce will start to bubble up. Stir over medium heat until the bubbles have gone away.

Remove from heat and serve.
