Ma's Chili

from Ma

Ingredients

  • 1 can Jalapeno Ranch Style Beans
  • 1 can tomato sauce, 28 oz
  • 1 can Rotel, regular or hot
  • 1 kit 2-Alarm chili spices
  • 4 oz mushrooms (sliced), optional
  • 1/2 yellow onion (diced), optional
  • 1 jalapeno (diced), optional
  • 1 lb ground beef

So easy, so good. Makes a huge pot, so you'll have leftovers

Steps

  1. Brown the ground beef on medium-high heat in a large pot until juices run clear.

  2. Add mushrooms, onion, and jalapeno(or whatever veggies you want) and cook until slightly soft.

  3. Turn heat to low.

  4. Add beans, Rotel, tomato sauce, and 28 oz can of water.

  5. Add 2-Alarm chili seasoning packets (the red pepper packet is hot, start with half the packet and add more if you want more spice).

  6. Stir occassionally and let it simmer for about 30 minutes

Notes

  • Careful with the red pepper. I end up adding the full packet, but start with half the packet first to be safe
  • If it's looking too thin, crank up the heat a little bit and let some of the liquid simmer off
  • Serve with shredded cheese, sour cream, and saltine crackers
