    I could eat chili for breakfast, lunch and dinner

    That looks pretty dank. My fave chili seasoning is the McCormick one.

    Looks good.

    If you wanted to spend less money, put more beans and less beef.

    I didn’t use a written recipe. Writing approximations here since it’s the rule.

    Ground chuck – 2 lbs

    Tomato sauce – 1 can

    Diced tomatoes – 1 can

    Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce

    Kidney beans – 1 can

    Yellow onion

    Garlic

    Jalapeño

    Chili powder (to taste)

    Salt

    Pepper

    1. Brown ground Chuck
    2. Add salt, pepper, chili powder
    3. Add onion, garlic, jalapeño, and chipotles in adobo
    4. Simmer on low for 25 minutes up to an hour
    5. Add beans and cook 10 more minutes
    6. Remove from heat and serve

    I’m making a pot tomorrow! Leftovers get used for chili dogs.

    Freezes well. Serve over rice, pasta, toast, or baked potato.

    I usually do vegetarian chili these days but all styles, it’s a great budget (and easy, make ahead) meal. Good idea!

    Then make spaghetti or baked potatoes and put it on top, for something different

    I love chili as meal prep bc you can have it so many ways! On a baked potato/over French fries, over spaghetti noodles with some cheese and diced onion for chili spaghetti, mixed into or on top of macaroni and cheese for chili Mac, mixed into penne and topped with cheese for a casserole, on nachos. Chili is really a hard worker!
