Answer 4

I make a wonderful chili that my hubbies friends buy by the quart. It is fast, easy, and tasty. You will need to buy spices though, and they can be costly, but remember, spices keep for ages, and stretch well for the money.
1 lb. ground beef
1 can tomatoes and green chilies or 1 can rotel
1 can kidney beans-lite or dark (drained)
1 small onion diced
1 Cup Ketchup
1 Cup Water
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. Chili Powder
1 tsp. Pepper
2 tsp. Ground Cumin
1 tsp. Curry Powder

Brown ground beef, drain the fat, and put meat aside. In the same pot add 1 Tbsp. oil, heat on med-hi heat. Add diced onion and cook for 3 minutes, stirring so it doesnt burn or stick to pan. Add all of remaining ingrediants, i ncluding the meat. Simmer on low heat for 30 minutes. Thats it.........serve with shredded chedder cheese on top if you like.

All-American Chili:

6 ounces hot turkey Italian sausage
2 cups chopped onion
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
8 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound ground sirloin
1 jalapeño pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 bay leaves
1 1/4 cups Merlot or other fruity red wine
2 (28-ounce) cans whole tomatoes, undrained and coarsely chopped
2 (15-ounce) cans kidney beans, drained
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Remove casings from sausage. Add sausage, onion, and the next 4 ingredients (onion through jalapeño) to pan; cook 8 minutes or until sausage and beef are browned, stirring to crumble.

Add chili powder and the next 7 ingredients (chili powder through bay leaves), and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in wine, tomatoes, and kidney beans; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

Uncover and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Discard the bay leaves. Sprinkle each serving with cheddar cheese.

Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1 1/4 cups chili and 1 tablespoon cheese)

Answer 9

At your local grocery store there is a package called "2 Alarm Chili". All you have to add is hamburger meat, tomato sauce and water. All the spices are in the package, individually packaged. You can add beans if you like the beans in your chili. Very simple and very good.
