Mexican Chili

This weekend Christian was watching football all day and it was a crisp fall day.  I felt the urge to make some chili and what goes better with fall and football than chili? Now, I have never made a chili recipe before because I don’t care for it. I wish I did, because Saturday would have been the perfect day to curl up with a warm bowl of chili. Christian is a big fan of Mexican food, so I decided to make Mexican Chili.  He rated it a 4/5.  Here’s the super easy recipe.

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 45 oz kidney beans drained
• 30 oz canned diced tomatoes drained
• 2 cups chunky salsa
• 3 tbsp chili powder

Brown the meat with 1-1/2 tbsp of chili powder.  Drain meat and combine everything  in a pot.  Bring to a boil.  Simmer on medium heat about 15 minutes.  This serves four.  Since I don’t eat it, I froze two servings for him to have later.  This is such a quick and easy recipe.  The salsa takes a simple everyday recipe to the next level.
