I made chili for the first time. What I mean to say is I learned how to cook it without opening a can of Hormel Chili With Beans which happens to be my favorite chili my family hates.


It’s still not technically “home made”, but it’s a step up from pouring the Hormel Chili into a bowl and sticking it into the microwave. Here is how I made the chili and it was a great hit with the family.

You will need:

1 packet of French’s Original Chili-O Seasoning Mix

2 cans of Diced Tomatoes (undrained)

2 cans of Kidney Beans (undrained)

1 pound of ground beef

This is definitely going toward my  “Expand my cooking abilities (goal is to learn 12 new recipes)” New Year Resolutions for 2010.
