Dad’S Sweet(Ish) Chili

1. 1

   Note: if you want a veggie chili, skip the beef and warm beans on low prior to step 2.

2. 2

   Additional note: I drain all but a smidge of the juice from all of the cans. Just enough for flavor but not enough to water the chili down.

   1. Brown the ground beef over medium heat. Once browned, drain grease and return browned meat to pan.

   2. Add chili seasoning packet to meat along with a 14 ounce can of diced tomatoes, and the onions and peppers. If you like a spicy chili, add in extra chili powder.
