This is about as simple a meal as one can make especially when it’s prepared using a crock pot aka slow cooker.

The Stuff

1 1/2 lbs. ground beef

1 chopped jalapeño pepper (no seeds)

1/2 chopped green or red pepper (no seeds)

1 can or jar tomato sauce ( about 2 1/2 - 3 cups)

1 chopped onion

1 can tomato puree

1 or 2 cloves of garlic (chopped)

1 tsp. salt

1 tbsp. brown sugar

2 tbsp. chili powder

1 can red kidney beans

What to do

Break up the ground beef in the crock pot. Open the cans and dump them into the pot. Put all the other ingredients into the pot as well. Stir the mixture well. Put the lid on the crock pot. Cook for 8 hours on low. The flavours come out like no other type of cooking. So go easy on the spices unless you prefer your chili fiery hot.

You can change it up by serving with shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese, chopped green onions or sour cream or all of the above.

Freeze any unused portion in  those resealable 1.75 cup containers so you can reheat it in the microwave. Tastes like you just made it mawn!

If you don’t own a slow cooker. Get one!

The programmable one with the meat probe is well worth the extra money.
