With it being football season, it is the perfect time to make some yummy chili. Invite your friends over, cheer on the Seahawks in the Superbowl, and dive into a yummy bowl of chili. Not only is this chili super quick and easy to make, but it is packed with flavor and will be a huge hit with everyone!!!
Ingredients:
- 2 3/4 lb-3lb ground beef
- 1 medium onion, diced
- Salt/Pepper to taste
- 1 can Mexican tomatoes (Rotel OR tomatoes w/ onion and jalapenos)
- 1 can chili beans

- About 36-42 oz V-8 tomato juice
Directions:

I made this for my family last night and it was a huge hit! Very flavorful! Will definitely be making this an addition to our family’s favorite recipes!

Hi! What did you use for the can of “Mexican tomatoes”? Do you mean the Rotel brand of tomatoes with green chilies? Also what are the sizes of the cans in this recipe? It looks great and I’d love to try it for this Sunday’s football gathering. Thank you!
Kristin, Adriana, and Marissa
Hi!!! Yes, we use Rotel if wanting a kick to our chili, or we change it up and use Garlic/Oregano seasoned tomatoes if wanting it a bit more mild. As for sizes of cans, we use the standard 15 oz cans 🙂
Kristin, Adriana, and Marissa
Oops, meant garlic/onion tomatoes 🙂

You can make it without the beans right?
Kristin and Adriana
Yes 🙂
Just cut down on the liquid a bit 🙂
Sandi Christian
My husband doesn’t like chili w/ beans either and what I’ve discovered is smashing the beans instead of leaving them whole. Still get all the added protein, and flavor from the beans 🙂
Kristin and Adriana
Great idea!!! Thanks 🙂
Jill Johnson
You can also use refried beans instead.

I love this chili recipe. I’ve used it so many times for family and friends. You should totally enter this chili contest! I think you have a good chance at winning (because I don’t want to steal your credit)!

Looks delicious! We love beans in chili too! One question though, are the beans not drained?
Kristin
Whoops, sorry for not including that. The kidney beans are drained, the chili beans are not! Enjoy!

Your recipe calls for Ground Beef. In your comments below the recipe you state that this can be made in a slow cooker. Then you proceed to say you can cook the Turkey & Onions first. I take it that you can use either for this recipe.
Kristin
Whoops, sorry! Yes, turkey or beef work in this recipe, I have used both so its preference. As for slow cooker, just cook the meat prior to putting ingredients into slow cooker! Enjoy!

I have read where people smash their beans to get the flavor because they don’t like the beans. I use a can of refried beans in my Chili. You have the beans without the look of the beans. It also helps to thicken up the Chili.
Kristin
That’s a great idea! Thanks!

How many servings is this recipe?

In this recipe do you drain the rotel or use juices too?
Kristin
Nope, no need to drain, use the juice! Enjoy!
Mary Jarvis
Crazy question, what are “ chili “ beans? Pinto beans, cannellini beans, pink beans,garbanzo beans ?
Thanks
Kristin
You’ll find them typically in the same section as the beans you listed, but they are beans that have been seasoned with chili spices. I buy the brand Bush’s and it has chili peppers and garlic seasoned with the beans! Hope that helps!
Mary
Awesome ,thanks. I figured that was the case,but wanted to be sure 😁
Kristin
Hope you enjoy! Let me know if you try it!
