This recipe came off of a 1 pound package of Wal-Mart Chuck Ground Beef. I tried it and it came out wonderful. It makes a soup-like chili.
Ingredients:
1 pound of ground chuck
1 small onion, diced (about 1/2 cup)
1 (15 ounce) can of light red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 (28 ounce) can of diced tomatoes, undrained
2 (8 ounce) cans of tomato sauce
1 cup of water
1 tablespoon of chili powder
1 teaspoon of sugar
1 teaspoon of cocoa powder
1 teaspoon of salt
optional toppings; sliced green onions, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped avocado or crushed corn chips.
Directions:
1. Cook and stir ground meat an onions in a 5 quart pot over medium heat until beef crumbles and is no longer pink (about 7 minutes).
2. Drain grease and return meat to the pan.
3. To the pot add the beans, tomatoes, tomato sauce, water, chili powder, sugar, cocoa and salt.
4. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low.
5. Cover pot and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
6. Serve with desired optional toppings.
7. Note:
8. Let simmer longer if you want it to be thicker. I let mine simmer for about an hour. (Also don’t forget to keep stirring)
