Friday: Crockpot Chili

Thursday was supposed to be Tostada Pizza, but the important thing in meal planning, I suppose is flexibility.  That being said, I felt crummy so it became a leftover day.


Friday, I still wasn't feeling better so it became crock pot time again.  I made chili.

The ingredients:

1lb ground beef (browned)
4 cans of stewed tomatoes
4 cans of kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
2 freshly diced tomatoes
1 fresh jalapeno (diced)
1 green bell pepper (diced)
2 tsp ground cumin
3 tbsp chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste

Basically, I threw it all in the crock pot on high and walked away, going back occasionally to stir.  Delicious! Sometimes I use 2 cans kidney beans and 2 cans of black beans.  The great thing about chili? You can change it to your preferred tastes!
