5 Minute Chili
For that last minute need a meal on the table night… this is one of my most often used winter meals.
Ingredients:
1 package meat (I always have 1 pound packages of browned, seasoned ground beef in freezer)
5 cans* of different whatever type beans you have (I keep stocked in black, red, chili, black-eye and white)
1 can or jar of spaghetti sauce
1 package chili season (or mix teaspoon of garlic powder, pepper, salt, cumin, chili powder)
Directions:
Open and dump everything into a large pot. (may have to thaw meat in microwave for 60 seconds to break it up) – add one cup of HOT water and heat on medium heat until ready to eat.
Serves 6-8 large bowls. Add some bread and butter or a salad to the table and you are ready!
- We use 5 cans only because that is how many cans it takes to feed us. I have found one can of beans per adult works out just about right without leftovers.
These look so delicious!!
I went in and read about the make ahead browned ground beef also–I never knew you could do that–as for this chili dish–Yummy–will attempt to make this for me 1 can of beans you say for 1 adult, maybe 1/5 jar of spaghetti sauce and 1/4 t0 1/2 lb pre done meat—–some hit water and spices—–easy!!!!
that sound great and quick one
Really appreciate these easy recipes for this time of year. Looks delish!
It really doesn’t get much simpler than this! Not a big fan of chili, but John could make this for himself when he is on the road working.
This quick and easy recipe works for me!
great idea! I am always looking for quick dinners especially on busy school nights between homework and extracurricular activities!
That looks yummy! Thanks!
