This chili recipe, or chili con carne, is a basic recipe that is so easy to make. You'll see that you can go in many directions with this recipe, to spice it up, veggie it up, or leave as is - whatever your preference. I often add vegetables to my chili to make it a real meal in a pot. I add celery, a few chopped carrots, and sometimes some canned corn. And of course, lots of garlic. The recipe calls for 2 cloves, but I usually use about 4. It really ups the nutrition factor. Chili is one of the classic comfort foods. It seems like the perfect easy dinner recipe on a cold winter night, but works just about any time of year. ChiliPrep time: Cook time: 1 pound ground beef Sauté onions over medium heat in non-stick pan or in a touch of oil. Add ground beef and garlic and brown well.
