Last week I started, Freezer Food Friday where I posted a recipe that you could make ahead of time and put in your freezer to use at a later time. Last weeks recipe for Tex-Mex Chicken was a huge hit and I’m thinking this recipe will be just as popular. I k now it is in my family! I know we are in the heart of summer, but this is a recipe you will want to make now and stock your freezer for fall and winter.
Chili
Ingredients
- One 32oz Spicy Hot V8 juice
- Two 16oz cans of Chili Hot Beans (I use Brooks)
- 1pkg. Hot or mild Chili Seasonings
- 1lb Ground Beef (sometimes I use ground turkey…be sure to really season it well while browning it)
- 1 oz Bakers Unsweetened Baking Chocolate
Steps
- Fry the beef or turkey and drain the fat.
- In pot, combine all ingredients on low heat and simmer for 1-1.5hrs, stirring occasionally.
- Put the chili in containers or freezer zip lock bags. Once cool, label and put in the freezer for up to 1 year!
**I like to put them in portions that are small enough for my husband and I to use up in a couple days**
***Also, for whatever reason…the bakers chocolate is KEY so no matter how weird you think it is, STILL PUT IT IN THERE!***
