If you're like me you look for meals that will allow you to stretch your bucks BUT, taste good & your whole family will like. Even the picky eaters...I know I'm not the only one with a couple of those!! :)
I developed my homemade chili recipe about 3 years ago and I don't have complaints from ANYONE...even my fussiest eater! And it's VERY budget friendly!! My meal tonight cost me a grand total of $8.20 for my family of four (4) and there is ALWAYS leftovers which either get frozen or turned into another meal!!
From my kitchen to yours......Dalton Style Chili Beans!
Ingredients:
1 lb. ground beef
1 jar salsa (we use HOT!)
2 cans pork & beans
1 can chili beans
1 can kidney beans
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 large onion, diced
3/4 lg. tomatos, seed & diced
1 palmful chili powder
2-3 tbsp. olive oil
{$.69ea for Pork & Beans, $3.25 for 1lb ground beef, $1.99 for the salsa, $.69 for the Kidney beans, and $.89 for the Chili beans! I had the tomato, garlic, onion, chili powder, and olive oil on hand!}
Heat the olive oil in a large dutch oven.
Add the onions, garlic, and tomato to the heated oil.
Sautee until the garlic & onion become fragrant.
Next, add a palmful of Chili powder to the sauteed vegetables.
Next add in the ground beef.
Brown the beef and, when it's done, drain the grease.
When the meat is browned and drained--add in the beans, salsa, and 1/4 can of water.
Simmer to blend the flavors!
Serve with your favorite shredded cheese & a slice of cornbread!!
Yummmmm-o!!!!
I hope you enjoy this as much as my family does!!
