When my 8-year-old son – a picky eater — came home from school one day and asked me to make chili for dinner, I was ecstatic. I knew the recipe had to be kid-friendly (no green specs of anything could be visible), so that was the night my kid-approved chili was created. All my boys love this meal, which is quite a miracle!



Simple and Kid-Approved Chili Save Print Prep time 5 mins Cook time 20 mins Total time 25 mins Author: Momma Chef Serves: 6 Ingredients 1 pound lean ground beef

2 (15 oz.) cans crushed tomatoes

1 can (15 to 16 oz.) kidney beans, drained

1 packet McCormick Chili Seasoning, mild

1 tsp. olive oil Instructions In a large pot, add 1 teaspoon oil and brown the meat over medium heat for 5 minutes, breaking up the meat as you stir. Pour in tomatoes, kidney beans and chili seasoning and stir to mix. Cover and cook for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Tips: Add assorted toppings, such as shredded cheese, chopped onions or sour cream when serving. To reduce sodium, try with McCormick 30% Less Sodium Chili Seasoning Mix or 30% Less Sodium Mild Chili Seasoning Mix. If you like a bit more heat, add ¼ tsp. crushed red pepper. If you want to make this in a crockpot, add the oil on the bottom, the uncooked beef on the oil, the rest of the ingredients on top of the beef. Cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 6 hours. 3.5.3226
