TACO RANCH CHILI

Steps:

• 1. Brown beef in dutch oven over medium heat. I don't drain the beef because it is lean and I use what fat there is to cook the onion and garlic.
• 2. When ground beef is almost cooked, add onion. When onion is almost translucent, add garlic.
• 3. Combine the remaining ingredients in the pot and stir.
• 4. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. The longer it simmers the better it is, so if you can take smelling all that wonderful chili goodness, let it simmer for at least an hour or so.
• 5. Serve with tortilla chips, sour cream, shredded cheese, avocado. chopped green onions or tomatoes...you get the idea.
• 6. Last but not least, consider doubling the recipe because it won't last long. Enjoy!
