Easy Chili Recipe

When it gets cold outside, my mind automatically goes to the easy chili recipe that my mom makes.  I’ve modified it of course because that’s what daughters do: we take traditional dishes and make them our own.

EASY CHILI RECIPE

 

So Saturday morning, I woke up and it was 32 degrees. Geez, Happy November to us!  It was a gorgeous day outside and the forecast was to hit the high 50s.

But it seemed to me, that it was the perfect time to make some comfort foods and watch Hallmark movies. 

Specifically, make a big pot of Chilli, put on fuzzy socks and watch Hallmark Movies.

After a little shopping at Target in my Uggs drinking a Machiatto.

Sounds so basic but fun right?

So that’s what I did. 

I stopped by the grocery store on the way home and picked up everything I needed

  • Ground Turkey’
  • Beans
  • Stewed Tomatoes,
  • onions, green peppers 
  • Tomato Sauce
  • Spices…

And now comes the reason I call this an Easy Chili Recipe

Easy chili recipe with avocados, tomatoes, cheese

After browning the meat with the veggies, I literally threw everything in the pot and let it simmer for 2 hours.

Bam, done.

Gorgeous, easy chili, ready to eat. 

I was so ready for it, I just sprinkled a little cheese on it and dug in.

But this Chili is great with sour cream, avocados, salsa…
