Matthew and I (Christy) love some good chili on a cool Autumn or Winter evening. This is our favorite Chili recipe and probably Matthew's favorite meal.
1 pound lean ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 can (14 1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1 Tablespoon chili powder
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 can (15 or 16 ounces) kidney or pinto beans, rinsed and drained
Cook beef, onion and garlic in 3-quart saucepan over medium heat 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is brown; drain. Stir in remaining ingredients, except beans. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Stir in beans. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until desired thickness. Garnish with cheddar cheese and saltine crackers.
Who are we? Working women who also happen to like to cook . . . some recipes are favorites shared by family members, some are experiments we stumble across that turn out pretty good! You should be able to find a little of everything here: from elaborate to extremely easy, from healthy to indulgent - enjoy!
