Recipe Notes

  • Timesaving tip — cut up onions ahead of time and freeze them in a plastic bag so chopped onions are ready anytime.

  • Chili is the most forgiving recipe — add in veggies, like corn and zucchini, or sub in other beans if you don't have kidney beans on hand. 

  • Use chili to dress up nachos.

  • Vegetarian: Vegetarian: Replace beef with two bell peppers, diced..
