Description

This is my mom’s classic chili recipe that she always makes on a cold, winter day. I’ve tried other chili recipes but I always come back to this one. You can even make this in huge quantities and then freeze in smaller portions so you can always have a warm bowl of chili!

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Ground Beef
  • 1 Tablespoon Dried Onion (Or 1/2 Onion, Chopped)
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 1 can (15 Oz. Can) Pinto Or Kidney Beans
  • 16 ounces, fluid Tomato Sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons Chili Powder
  • 1 can (10 Oz. Can) Ro-tel (Tomatoes With Green Chilies)
  • ¼ teaspoons Cayenne Pepper (Optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Basil
  • 1 Tablespoon Ground Cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Oregano
  • ¾ teaspoons Salt
  • _____
  • FOR THE OPTIONAL TOPPINGS:
  • Tofutti Sour Cream
  • Tofutti American Cheese
  • Corn/Tortilla Chips
  • Prepared Yellow Mustard

Preparation

1. Cook the beef and onion (or onion seasoning) until brown. Drain off fat.

2. Stir in remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil.

3. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 30-45 minutes. Serve with desired toppings. Easy and delicious!
