MOM'S CHILI

This is my mom's chili recipe.  It is simple to make and oh so very tasty!  I remember eating this a lot while growing up and it is still one of my favourite go-to recipes to make.  One memory I have of this Chili is we would eat it on Halloween.  Now enough reminiscing and on to cooking!

The ingredients needed to make this delicious chili are:

  

• 1 lb lean ground beef 
• 1/2 - 1 cup chopped onions
• 2 - 4 TSP of Chili powder (or more - to taste)
• 2 10 oz cans of Tomato soup (I know only 1 is pictured)
• 1 14.5 oz can of Stewed Tomatoes
• 3 19 fl oz cans of Red Kidney Beans  (I know only 2 are pictured)

This recipe should serve/feed 4-6 people.

DIRECTIONS

1.  Place ground beef and chopped onion in a large pot.

 
2.  Brown ground beef over medium heat until meat is no longer pink and onions are soft.  Stir occasionally to avoiding burning.

 
3.  Drain off excess fat.

4.  Add chili powder.  Stir until chili powder has been incorporated into the beef and onion mixture.

 
5.  Stir in condensed tomato soup, can of stewed tomatoes, and kidney beans. Stir until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.  Allow the chili to come to a boil and gently stir constantly to avoid burning chili and crushing up the kidney beans.

 

6.  Ladle chili into individual bowls and garnish with grated cheese, sour cream (if desired) and serve with bread, biscuits, or tossed salad.

7.  Refrigerate any leftovers in a covered dish.  May be reheated easily in the microwave or stove top.

Enjoy!
