16 oz. sour cream
1 pkg. Kraft Mexican 4 Cheese Blend, shredded
1. Dice the onions. Rinse & drain all cans of beans.
2. Crumble & brown beef in a large pot over medium high heat.
3. Once the meat starts to brown, add salt, pepper, garlic powder & chili powder, stir.
4. Add onions & mexicorn, stir. When the meat is fully cooked, add beans & cans of diced tomatoes.
5. Reduce heat to low, add beef broth, taco seasoning & stir to mix.
6. Cover pot & let soup simmer on low for 30 minutes.
7. Serve in a bowl, top with spoon full of sour cream & shredded cheese.
Chef’s Note: For red-meat free soup, substitute ground turkey in place of beef & chicken broth in place of beef broth. For vegetarian soup, double the beans called for in place of the meat & use vegetable broth instead of beef or chicken broth.
1. Brown the beef & drain. Cook the macaroni as according to the package. Combine & mix up the tomato sauce, beef, macaroni, Chili Beans, & seasoning mix in crockpot or in a pot on stove on medium to medium-high heat. Stir occasionly. To spice it up even more add a few tbsp of cayenne pepper during cooking. Will take around 20-30 mintues.
2. When warm set crock pot to low to keep warm. Have the crackers, shredded cheese, & Frank’s hot sauce (for those brave souls) out so people can top their chili.
1. Add red beans & tomatoes to a large pot. Set to low. Brown ground sirloin in a skillet on medium-high. Add salt & pepper to season. Just a little bit, be sensible.
2. Now is the good part. Take a couple of pinches of your sugar & add to the browning sirloin. Do the same with the brown sugar. If there is a good amount of fat/grease, drain. Leave a little to help with the chili mix.
3. Add the Original Chili season mix to the ground sirloin. Add to the pot with red beans & tomatoes.
4. In a skillet, brown the ground beef. Once again add salt & pepper, pinches of brown & regular sugar.
5. Take chipotle hot sauce & regular hot sauce & add a couple of shakes around the browning beef. (How much you add here determines the real hotness of the chili. None to little for just a sweet & mild chili or more for sweet & hot, & a good amount like me for the real sweet & fire in your mouth!!)
6. Keep the fat/grease & add to pot with red beans, tomatoes, & ground sirloin. Add mild/hot chili seasoning. Slice the bacon into smaller bite sized pieces.
7. In skillet take the thick sliced bacon pieces & cook in previous fat/grease that is left & the seasoning. As the bacon is cooking, add the rest of the sugars to the pot with everything else. When the bacon is finished, add to pot & let simmer.
8. Enjoy with saltine crackers.
