Notes

    • For a spicy kick, add a little cayenne pepper or chili sauce to your chili.
    • Lots of folks enjoy the taste of a green bell pepper in their chili, if you do, chop some into pencil eraser size pieces and add when you put the onion in large pan.
    • This is an easy busy day meal and is terrific on a snow day. 
    • Top the whole thing with cheddar cheese and a dollop of sour cream. A side of warm bread is perfect!
    • You can make this in the slow cooker for a handy meal that's ready when you get home. Just brown the meat and onions and then put the whole thing in the crockpot and set on low. It'll be ready in 6-8 hours. 
    • This is great served with a chili dog and some tortilla chips
