Chili

My mother-in-law's recipe and the only chili worth having, according to my husband. It even won us the chili cook-off at our church competition one year!

Chili

1-2 lbs ground beef
2-3 pkg. McCormick's Chili Seasoning (original)
1 large can (46 oz.) tomato juice
2-3 cans light red kidney beans
1 can diced tomatoes
Sugar to taste (brings out the flavor)
Sour Cream
Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Brown ground beef.

Add seasoning and a pinch or two of sugar.

Add 1/2 of the can of tomato juice, and let it cook into the meat.

Add beans and remaining tomato juice. Allow to simmer until desired flavor is reached.

Top with sour cream and shredded cheese.


Freezer Meal: Freeze after preparation, then thaw and heat through when ready to eat.

  2. Seriously?? That's hilarious! Maybe it's a midwestern thing! I have no idea where she got it. They did spaghetti a day or two later with leftovers. :)

  3. Diced tomatoes are an addition to mom's recipe.
