Chili

It's that time of year - Thursday I ran to the basement before carting my daughter to school. Needed hat and mittens. Found them in the appropriate box (for once).

Decided to make chili for dinner. The nice thing about this is it can be thrown in the crockpot in the morning or tended to on the stove.

Chili
1 pound ground beef
1 small onion - chopped
2 cans diced tomatoes
1 can chili beans
1 can black beans - drained and rinsed
1 can kidney beans - drained and rinsed
chili powder
ground cumin
hot sauce
1 can tomato paste

Brown ground beef with onion. Add tomatoes, beans and seasoning to taste. Whisk tomato paste with two cans water before adding. Simmer awhile. Serve with cornbread or fritos. I have shredded cheddar cheese, sliced green onion and sour cream as add-ins.

Love chili on a cold day.
