I'm a huge sports fan. And by huge sports fan, I mean that I asked my husband the colors of the two teams playing in the Super Bowl so that I could make coordinating cupcakes.
I do love a great sporting event- if not for the entertainment factor. We're attending a Super Bowl party at my brother's house this weekend and I'm really looking forward to my mom's fabulous Chili. She serves it over rice, while I prefer to eat it plain and spiced up.
Ingredients:
2.5 lb. ground beef
1/2 fresh sweet red pepper, chopped
1/2 large onion, chopped
large can of tomato juice (64 oz)
1 large can whole tomatoes (or 1 quart-I used a quart of the tomatoes we canned last fall)
1 can Dark Red Kidney Beans
1 can Red Beans
1 can Black Beans
1 can corn (I used a 2 cup package of the corn off the cob we froze last fall)
1 tsp chili powder
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup jalapenos (optional)
Directions:
Brown ground beef in a skillet with chopped peppers and onions. Drain the fat.
Drain and rinse the Dark Red Kidney Beans, Red Beans, and Black Beans in a colander.
Add ground beef, pepper and onion mixture to a large soup pot. Add the drained, rinsed beans. Add the large can of tomato juice, then add a half a can of water to the pot.
Add the can of whole tomatoes to the pot, breaking them up with your fingers into bite-sized chunks. Finally, add the corn, chili powder, salt, pepper and jalapenos and stir to combine.
Heat the chili through, then serve with rice or plain with hot sauce and crackers. Enjoy!
