Chili for 2 ( or 4 )
"I found this in the 2003 Taste of Home Annual Recipes cookbook. It was sent to them by Norma Grogg of St. Louis, Missouri. Since I like a meatier chili, an extra 1/4 pound of ground beef was added.But even if the extra beef hadn't been added, I still think it would be enough for 4. After simmering, I did a " taste test " and added some crushed red pepper flakes for more heat. If you don't add the crushed red pepper, it's very mild. If desired add some cheese to each serving.

Good and easy to make. I doubled the recipe but used a pound of ground beef that I already had cooked in the freezer. I also used petite diced tomatoes as that is all I buy. I didn't add the optional crushed red peppers as I thought it was perfectly seasoned. Really quick to make. I froze for lunches. -
This is such a simple and great chili. My husband and I both loved it! I'm definitely going to make it again for the whole family. Thank you for sharing this! -
Fantastic chili recipe, we really enjyed it as written!! Thank you. -
Cannot thank u enough for this recipe AND the helpful hints!! To my meat-lovin' hubby, 1/4 lb beef wouldn't have been enough so adding the extra meat made a big difference (i used extra lean)!! I used chili beans & tomatoes that were "chili-seasoned," plus i used all the seas listed. I totally did a flip when hubby said it tasted great; he just loved it! He served it w/ low fat mexican cheese & crushed tortilla chips on top. Thanks so much for sharing!!

Even though I haven't been here for a long time, MY recipes aren't up for adoption. :) And don't change any of them either. ;)
