Easy Weekend Chili

In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef.

While the ground beef is browning add the beans, tomato soup, tomato sauce, hot sauce and seasonings into a large stockpot over medium-low heat.

When the ground beef is browned, drain away the excess liquid and add the meat into the stockpot.

Turn the heat to medium-high and heat until the mixture begins to gently bubble. You can add up to 10 ounces of water, a little at a time, if you think the mixture is too thick. Cook like this for a few minutes, then reduce the heat to medium-low.

Add the flour into a medium bowl, and slowly stir in the 1/3 cup of water to form your dumplings. You want the mixture to come together, but to be dry.

Use a tablespoon to scoop out the dumplings and add them into the chili.Cook for another 10-15 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning, as needed.

Serve hot with your favorite garnishes.
