Traditional chili with lots of beans and just the right amount of heat!
Ingredients
1 tsp olive oil
1 lb ground beef (92% lean)
1 package mild chili seasoning
1 (6 oz) can tomato juice
2 (14 oz) cans no salt added diced tomatoes with green chiles
1 (14 oz) can chili beans in chili sauce
1 (15 oz) can light red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15 oz) can dark kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15 oz) can pork and beans
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the ground beef and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon until no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes. Drain fat, if needed.
Add chili seasoning, mix well, add the tomato juice, bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and add the remaining ingredients. Cook on low for 4-6 hours, stirring occasionally. Alternately, transfer the beef and all remaining ingredients to a crock pot and cook on low for 6 hours. Serve hot.
