Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
2 Ground beef
2 Diced tomatoes
2 Dark red kidney beans
1 Pinto beans
1 Green pepper
1 Garlic cloves
1 Green onion
8 Ounces Monterey Jack cheese

Recipe Instructions:

  1. Brown the Beef: Start by browning the ground beef in a skillet until it’s cooked through. 🥩

  2. Add Vegetables: Once the beef is browned, add in the diced green and red peppers, mushrooms, and garlic to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are just tender, releasing their aromatic flavors. 🌶️🍄

  3. Transfer to Crock Pot: Transfer the beef and vegetable mixture into your trusty crock pot, spreading it evenly across the bottom. Sprinkle the chili seasoning mix over the mixture for that perfect blend of spices. 🍲

  4. Incorporate Tomatoes: Add the diced tomatoes to the crock pot, stirring until everything is well blended and the flavors are starting to meld together. 🍅

  5. Slow Cook: Set your crock pot to low heat and let it work its magic for approximately 3 to 5 hours. This slow cooking process allows all the flavors to marry together, resulting in a rich and flavorful chili. ⏲️

  6. Add Beans: After a few hours of simmering, it’s time to add the kidney and pinto beans to the mix. Continue cooking for another 1 to 2 hours, allowing the beans to soften and absorb all the delicious flavors of the chili. 🥄

  7. Serve and Enjoy: Once the chili is cooked to perfection, serve it over your favorite pasta, whether it’s bowties, macaroni, or any other variety you fancy. Top each serving with a generous helping of shredded Monterey Jack cheese and chopped green onions for an extra burst of flavor and freshness. 🧀🌱
