Fall means so many things...hot apple cider, pumpkins, crunchy leaves, wool sweaters and chili season! One of our favorite autumn/winter meals is chili. It's a two night meal if I make a big enough pot. On the first night we eat it with corn bread and then have it the next night over baked potatoes. Here's our family recipe for chili!
Fiesta Chili
1 large onion chopped
1 lb. ground beef
1 green pepper chopped
Brown the above ingredients in pan.
Then add:
2 -14 1/2 oz. cans crushed tomatoes
2 -14 1/2 oz. cans crushed tomatoes
1 can kidney beans
1 can pinto beans
1 can black beans
1 cup picante sauce or salsa (whatever I have on hand)
1 packet of chili seasoning....use your favorite
I always double this recipe...but I don't always double the green pepper and onion. Go with the amount that you think your family will like best. Serve hot, with grated cheddar cheese, sour cream and corn bread!
Enjoy...and then head over to Jessica's for a lot more great soup, chili and stew recipes! Stock up on recipes now, it's chili season!

Why oh why does my husband not care for chili? I love it, but barely ever get to make it... :o(
Thank you so much for sharing this. It looks scrumptious.
Sounds yummy. I like to cook my chili in the crockpot and make extra to freeze.

My mouth is watering!
Love love chili. Thanks for your recipe. I always like to try new ones, and thanks for the kinds words of encouragement for Cameron. I love my new blog friends.
I always love a new chili recipe and this one looks great.
I must say, I love the title of your blog and your little catch phrase -- it is so well put! Good luck with my apron contest -- and this soup swap has been fun.

I truly laughed out loud when I read the comment you left on my blog today. Oh yes, don't forget your knitting needles! :)

Chili with salsa sounds perfect! I would put salsa on everything if I could - eggs with salsa are my favorite. i will definitely make this!
and you're right chili does taste better when it's cold out - i never thought of it that way before.
Oh, man, I love me a good pot of chili!!
YUM! your recipe looks so delicious! thanks for sharing it with us!
Me too, Lisa...I always double my chili recipe too--makes lots to keep in the freezer for later for warm, quick dinners. Your recipe is wonderful. I've been adding green pepper to my recipe, which I didn't do before as I didn't always like green pepper...Funny how tastes can change like that! But I love this time--chili time! Nothing like comfort food now...oh, yes! Happy Days, my friend :o) ((HUGS))

Thank you for reminding me of chili!! We have been cooking soup and homemade bread for dinners and I nearly forgot about chili.
Your recipe looks delicious.
Oh, chili! What a great idea, to put salsa in it... looks yummy!
Hey, Lisa, I'm making chili today! Did I tell you how pretty your Provence sweater is? Such a pretty color and I really love the pillowcases! Thanks for showing us how to do it!
