Recipe: Easy Homemade Chili

This past weekend, my hubby and I took a mini-break with his sister and her husband. We drove over to Yellville, Arkansas and rented a cabin. We canoed 9.5 miles down the Buffalo River on Saturday and then a shorter float (4.5 miles) on Sunday. The men fished and the girls enjoyed the scenery. The weather was cool and perfect for making some homemade chili. This recipe is easy-schmeezy. I’ll post a couple of photos at the bottom of the post.

Dauna’s (my sister) Easy Chili

1 large onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
1 pound ground beef or venison
1 cup tomato sauce (8 oz. can)
2 cups canned tomatoes (1 lb. can)
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons salt
4 cups cooked or canned kidney beans (2 cans – drained of juice)

Crumble ground beef into heated frying pan. Add onion and green pepper, and cook until tender. Add remaining ingredients and stir. Cook slowly for 45 minutes.

Y’all Enjoy!
