I don't know about most of you, but when I think about home-made chili I think, time consuming! Here is a recipe I got from my mom, and it makes really good, easy, fast chili! Here's the recipe:
- 1 lb. ground beef or ground turkey
- 1 small onion
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 2 cans refried beans
- 2 cans kidney, pinto, or black beans (I like to do 2 different kinds)
- 2 cans diced tomatoes
- 1 bottle Zesty (not Spicy!) V-8 Juice OR Bloody Mary Mix - don't worry it's non-alcoholic, I checked ; )
- Brown ground beef or turkey. Drain if needed.
- Add onion and cook until translucent.
- Add all other ingredients and mix together. Before you add the beans, make sure you rinse them off really well.
You can add more taco seasoning or beans if you think it needs it. You can also add a can of corn to the mix! I serve this with cheese and crackers, but you can also add sour cream : ).
That's it! I told you it was easy. It takes about 30 minutes, or less, from start to finish!
*Thanks Mom : )!*
