Chilli

This is our family's base recipe for chilli. We basically like it plain with no extras added to it except for a little more heat.

1 or 2lbs. lean ground beef
1 large can red kidney beans
1 large can dark red kidney beans (drained)
1 packet McCormick chilli seasoning packet
2 large cans tomato sauce
chilli powder
Toppings:
sour cream
shredded cheese

Brown ground beef in skillet and drain off fat.
Add seasoning packet and follow directions.
Pour all contents of cans into a large stock pot and then add meat.
Simmer on stove top or in crockpot until hot. Add extra chilli powder to add flavor to your liking. At times, we may add a can or two of corn.

Serve with cornbread or rice. Add toppings if desired.
Cornbread is jiffy mix.
