Ingredients

    2 Cups Black beans
    2 cups Ragu spaghetti sauce (traditional)
    1 packet of Mckormicks HOT chili seasoning
    1 red bell pepper, chopped
    1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
    Half of one medium red onion, chopped
    3 large jalapeno peppers, chopped
    1 tsp minced garlic (more to taste?)
    .5 tbls brown sugar
    .5 tsp basil
    Splash of Chalula hot sauce
    1 cup Kraft finely shredded sharp cheddar cheese (or veggie shreds)
    2 tbls Daisy light sour cream (on the side) if needed to 'cool off' this dish a little. (if you don't eat dairy subtract this entirely)

Directions

You can add the onions, minced garlic and pepper raw, or you can saute' them with cooking spray before adding them to the chili, your preference.

Add all ingredients into pot except shredded cheddar (and of course sour cream) and mix well. Bring to a boil and then Simmer on very low heat for 2 hours for optimum flavor.

When it's almost finished add 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and stir, allowing cheese to fully melt. You can also cut this inhalf and add .5 cup to the chili and then sprinkle .5 cup over top of chili once it's plated.

Makes two 1 cup servings. (there is usually a little left over so a smidge over 2 servings)
