Super Duper Easy Chili Recipe

Ok, here's the chili recipe I promised!

It's real tasty and is delicious topped with sour cream and cheddar cheese. Club House is a brand found in Canada. I'm pretty sure its available in the states as well but if not, you'll probably have McCormick or something similar. For international readers, you can find chili seasoning at your local grocery store which would sell North American items (hopefully!) OR buy it online!

So, here's what you need:

1 lb ground beef

1/2 cup green and red pepper, finely chopped

2 stalks green onions, chopped

4-6 Tbsp Club House Tex Mex Seasoning (

2 cups canned crushed tomatoes

1/2 cup water

1 cup canned red kidney beans, drained (omit if your kids don't like it)

salt to taste

1. Cook ground beef until browned. Add desired amount of chili seasoning, chopped peppers

and onions. Stir frequently and cook until peppers have softened.

2. Add crushed tomatoes, water, beans (optional), and salt to taste.

3. Bring mixture to boil, reduce heat and cover. Simmer for 10-15 minutes until chili

thickens slightly. Stir frequently. Serve warm.

Serve with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream (low fat if you wish), and freshly chopped cilantro (also known as coriander).
