Frito Chili

Sounds appetizing, and we love it!

Taco meat:

2 tablespoons canola oil
3/4 cup chopped onion
1 pound ground beef
1 to 3 garlic cloves
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the oil and chopped onion. Cook, stirring often, until the onion is softened, about 4-5 minutes. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking up the meat into smaller chunks, until it is cooked through.

Stir in the garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for a minute and then add the tomato sauce. Turn the heat to low, cover with a lid, and simmer the meat mixture for at least 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Then add:

3 cups water

2- 26oz cans diced tomatoes (I add 15oz of fire roasted in the mix)

1 can kidney beans

1 can black beans

1 16 oz can tomato juice

2 T sugar

Simmer 20 minutes. 

Then add:

1 16oz can corn

1 16oz can green beans

Stir together and warm everything up.

Serve with:
