First off, please excuse the quality of the above picture. I took several when I made chili, but they all came out blurry. This is an older picture I had on my phone, which looks much better than the recent ones. Still trying to master my new camera!
On to the subject today, Super Easy Chili. This is my own recipe. Chili is one of my favorite meals during fall and winter. To me, it is the ultimate comfort food. There are lots of ways to eat chili, but I like mine with Mexican mix cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and Scoop Fritos! For this recipe, use your favorite chili mix. I use a kind call Bloemer's. It is manufactured in Louisville, KY, which is not far from where I live, but I believe this particular type of chili start is not available in all parts of the country. Look for it in the meat department, in the cooler next to the hamburger. Here is what it looks like.
What You Need
-1lb Ground Chuck-2 Cans of Chili ready diced tomatoes
-2 Cans of Chili ready beans
-Bloemer's Chili starter, or your favorite
-1 Cup water
What You Do
Brown your ground beef and drain the grease off of it. Add your beans and tomatoes--Don't drain them first! Add them liquid and all! Add the cup of water and stir well. If you like your chili super thick, you don't have to add the water, but I like a little gravy in mine. Add your chili starter. Now, if you are able to find Bloemer's, it will come out of this tub in a hard rock form. The first time I saw this, I thought it was outdated, but that is the way it's supposed to look. Cover your chili and simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the chili starter has dissolved.
