Hearty Beef Chili

There are some foods that can go with anything. Chili is a great dish because you can always mix it up however you want! You can have chicken, vegetarian, etc. This Hearty Beef Chili is a great version because you can prep it easily and let it cook all day while you do other stuff and it will be ready to chow down when you are! If you want to let this simmer on the stove instead, just follow the instructions and put it in a soup pot on low to cook nice and thick for you. I prefer to top with cheddar cheese and sour cream but you can use whatever you want; jalapeños, use a piece of Honey Cornbread for dipping, anything goes!  Continue reading “Hearty Beef Chili”
