MOM'S CHILE CON CARNE (KID FRIENDLY)



Mom's Chile Con Carne (Kid Friendly) image

I've since learned this is not a true Chile con Carne, but that's what my mom always called it. She made this recipe while I was growing up, and I still make it today for my hubby or family. The heat in this can be adjusted by using more or less Chile powder or adding some cayenne pepper for bigger kids with spicier taste buds.

Time 55m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1/2 onion (chopped)
2 (15 ounce) cans reduced-sodium diced tomatoes
2 (15 ounce) cans low-sodium kidney beans
1 -2 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon oregano

Steps:

  • Cook ground beef and onions over medium heat in a large sauce pan or dutch oven until beef is browned and onions are tender. Drain and return to pan.
  • Add tomatoes and kidney beans (do not drain off juce).
  • Add spices and stir until blended.
  • Bring to boil, then reduce to low heat, cover and simmer for 30-45 minutes.
  • You can taste and adjust spices after 20-30 minutes - add more chile powder or a bit of cayenne pepper if you like it spicier - let it simmer another 20 minutes to blend flavors.
  • Serve in bowls with shredded cheese, onions, sour cream or crackers if desired. I like it with saltines broken into the chile with a little cheese on it.

SLOW COOKER CHILI CON CARNE (KID-FRIENDLY)



Slow Cooker Chili Con Carne (kid-friendly) image

This is my favourite version of chili, that I make often. It freezes wonderfully for a great make-ahead meal or freeze the leftovers for lunches or a quick dinner. It is not overly spicy so my daughter will eat it! If you like things spicy, increase the chili powder and cumin. One tip if your child still finds it too spicy, is to add additional canned beans in tomato sauce to their portion. It works! :) This is great with corn bread on the side. NOTE: You can substitute part of the ground beef with TVP (textured vegetable protein, SOY) without reconstituting first. I substitute 1/4 - 1/2 lb of the ground beef with 1/4 - 1/2 cup TVP bits. Add this into the pot with the other ingredients, do not saute with the ground beef.
