When its Chillin’ outside; It’s CHILI time inside!
Since the cool air is moving in, I wanted to share my one and only chili recipe with you. One and only because their is no need to try another-this one is a perfect crowd pleaser and easy to make. Believe me, they will want a second helping!

2-14-oz cans of tomatoes cut up, or 3 cups of peeled & cut-up fresh tomatoes
1 15-oz can of tomato sauce

4 tsp of chili powder
2 tsp salt
1/8 to 1/4 tsp ground cayenne pepper (based on taste)
1/8 to 1/4 tsp paprika spice
(A chopped green pepper can also be added)
Instructions:
In a large pot cook hamburger and add chopped onion 9optional chopped pepper)-cook till hamburger is no longer pink. Drain fat from cooked meat in pot
