Number of Servings: 5

Ingredients

    1 pound ground beef (I used 90% lean)
    1 T minced garlic
    1/3 cup chopped onion
    8 oz can of tomato sauce
    8 oz water
    2 tsp chili powder
    1 can (15.5oz) black beans (or any bean you prefer)
    1 cup frozen corn

Tips

This is a basic chili con carne recipe, and feel free to adjust as you and your family sees fit. Ideas could be to add in a variety of beans, more or less corn, add in kale, different spices, or even a different meat (ground pork, turkey, or ground chicken). I love this over brown rice.


Directions

1. Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat with chopped onion & minced garlic.

2. Stir in water & tomato sauce & chili powder

3. Add in a can of beans (I drained the liquid out of mine) & the cup of frozen corn

4. Cover & simmer for 10 minutes or until ready!
