You know it, you love it, you may even want to have sex with it (gixxer). Luckily, chili is easy to make - although the macros aren't awesome. Here's all you need:
Crock pot
1 packet McCormick chili seasoning (hot - mild is for wusses)
1 lb lean ground beef
1 can (8oz) crushed/diced tomato
1 can (8oz) tomato sauce
1 green bell pepper
1 can dark kidney beans
1 can pinto beans or chili beans (who cares)
Assorted vegetables - green beans, peas, carrots, corn, spinach, squirrel - whatever.
Spices:
hot sauce, sriracha (optional)
1. Brown the ground beef. If you fail, stop here and don't continue
2. In the crockpot, combine:
- Ground beef
- Tomato sauce and diced tomato
- kidney beans/chili beans
- McCormick seasoning
3. Cook for 4 hours on low.
4. Add vegetables, hot sauce/sriracha (optional), diced pepper(s). Jalapenos optional. Add whatever else you want.
5. Cook another 4 hours
6. Eat, store, hide in vegetable crisper with the lasagna so nobody finds it.
