A Cozy Chili Recipe

This is my favorite Chili Recipe that I make constantly throughout the Fall and Winter months. It’s the perfect comfort/cozy meal that really satisfies those cravings and keeps you nice and warm.

 

Chili really is such a staple in our house and I love that you can make healthy alternatives just by switching up the ingredients. This version of chili is my favorite and I love making a big portion every time to account for necessary leftovers. 

Chili

 

 

What you’ll need:

  • 1tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1/2 Yellow Onion
  • 3 Garlic Cloves

  • 14oz Fire Roasted Tomatos

  • 1/2 Cup Shredded Cheese

Optional:

  • Scallions
  • Shredded Cheese 
  • Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt
Side Option:
I love to lightly toast corn bread with melted butter.
 Crescent rolls are also great to have with this recipe. 
  1. Start with olive oil, garlic and onion. Sauté until soft. 
  2. Add in the ground beef and cook until brown. 
  3. Add the beans, chiles, tomato pasta, roasted tomatoes and seasoning and mix well.
  4. Add in the broth and let simmer for 10-12 minutes.
