Don't you just love the fall? I do! The leaves begin to change, the air is crisp, and football season is in high gear. Whenever I think of football and fall I think of frito pie! Boy do I love me some frito pie! Especially when the recipe involves my Mother in Laws Chili! You guys, this Chili is so good and so easy to make! I changed it just a tad bit in that instead of water I add a can of beer, but you can do whatever is best for your family. Over here we like the beer! (Ha, I am a poet and I did not even know it!)
GRAMZEE'S CHILI
Ingredients:
3 Tablespoons Oil (I use olive oil)
1 Cup of Chopped onions
1 clove of garlic (I use crushed garlic and a ton)
1lb ground beef
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can ranch style beans (we like the can with jalapenos)
1 can of water (we use beer here)
1 teaspoon paprika
2 Tablespoons chili powder
Instructions:
In a large pot saute your garlic and onion in your oil. When onions are transparent add your ground beef and brown. Once cooked throw in your tomatoes, ranch style beans, water (or beer), paprika, and chili powder. Let simmer until ready to serve.
FRITO PIE:
If in the mood for the frito pie you will need the following:
fritos
shredded cheese
onions
jalapenos
In a bowl place your chili and top with any and all of the above. I promise you will LOVE it! This is so good and so easy to make!
I made this Halloween night for 32 plus people (I tripled the recipe) and it was easy and everyone really enjoyed it! I hope you do too! Let me know what some of your fall favorites are for feeding a crowd! I would love to know!
xo,
Amy
