Notes
- Whenever “chili powder” appears in a recipe, it refers to a chili powder BLEND, not pure ground chilies.
- You can skip the browning step of the ground beef, but I think it adds a better flavor to the finished dish.
- What to do with leftovers
- Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat until it is piping hot!
- Substitutions/Additions
- Stir some fresh cilantro through it at the end of cooking for a fresh burst of flavor!
- Looking for more color? Add some green onions before serving, too!
- Add some chopped red or green bell peppers to the onions for some extra flavor or color
- Mix up the types of beans used. I use kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, cannellini beans, and even garbanzo beans. Whatever you have!
- Want to dial up the heat? Add some crushed chili flakes with the other spices
- This recipe can be frozen after cooking. Ladle into freezer safe containers, leaving a little room at the top for expansion. You can safely freeze this up to 6 months.
