Quick Chili

from www.allrecipes.com

• 1 lb lean ground beef
• 1 onion, chopped
• 15 oz can diced tomatoes or tomatoes with green chili’s
• 15 oz can chili beans
• 15 oz can kidney beans
• 1-2 Tablespoons chili powder
• 1 Tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 Tablespoon sugar
• ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
• ¼ teaspoon Cajun seasoning
• Up to 2 cups water

In a large pot, cook beef over medium heat until done.  Stir in and cook until onion is translucent.  Stir in tomatoes, beans, seasonings and water.  Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes.

(While this isn’t as good as my slow cooked chili it was a good basic chili and it sure was quick.  We enjoyed it over baked potatoes and everyone seemed to like it.  I’ll keep this recipe on hand for those days when I forget to start the crock pot going in the morning.  We hope you enjoy it to.)
