Quick and Easy Chili Recipe
3 small cans tomato soup*
3 soup cans of water
1/2 to 1 lb. cooked hamburger
Chili powder to taste
Garlic powder and onion powder to taste
Salt and pepper to taste
I usually use at least 2 teaspoons each of chili powder and garlic powder. You can also use onions. Put everything in a large pan and simmer at least 2 hours. It’s better to let it simmer all day if possible. You can add almost anything you want to this basic recipe. Beans work well or I like to crumble in some fried sausage for extra flavor.
*I have also replaced the soup with a large can (32-36 oz.) of tomato juice and it is good, too!

Hi, everybody!
I make what I call my Cheap and Sleazy Chili recipe once a month. It lasts for about four days — but then again, I live alone, so that’s probably got something to do with it.
Anyway, the goal is to avoid going over $10 when buying all of the ingredients … and yes, those ingredients include beans and not hamburger, but steak … and in keeping with that whole $10 limit idea, I do have to do a bit of shopping around to find a steak at about one pound to one and a half pounds at or near $5.
You can read the recipe here:

Good luck!
I add cumin to mine gives it a great taste.
