Summertime Chili

Chili is one of my favorite meals of all time.  Some people consider it a "winter-only" meal.  I, however, disagree.

I think chili is perfect for the summertime!  My recipe is incredibly simple, but worth repeating.

Summertime Chili

Chop onion and jalapeno.  Sautee in skillet with garlic and ground beef until meat is browned.


Add one can each of: pinto beans, black beans, kidney beans and diced tomatoes.


Now for the most important ingredients: Worcestersire sauce and heaping spoonfuls of chili powder


Simmer on low heat for an hour.


Scoop into bowl and sprinkle with cheese.


Eat & enjoy!


Do you eat chili year-round, or only in the colder seasons?

  3. Chili totally makes sense in the summer! I read some scientific study where they correlated spicy food with hot climates- think about places like Thailand, where it's super hot and they love their spice! It makes you sweat and cools you down. What's not to love?

  4. I agree. Chili is a year round meal. I don't have a problem eating a warm bowl of chili or soup in the summer. I'm usually freezing in the ac anyway!

  5. I could probably do a lot of "winter" soups year-round: potato soup, stews, vegetable lentil . . . yeah, I'm a soup fan!
