"Chunk Free" Chili

My son loves chili, but hates when it has "chunks" in it (a.k.a. tomatoes, onions, etc). He wants it spicy and simple. So, this is the perfect chili for kids who don't like "chunks" in their chili. :) Corey even entered it in a chili cookoff and won first prize!


















Ingredients:
4 15.5 oz. cans chili beans (do not drain)
1 29 oz. can tomato sauce
1 lb lean ground beef (93/7)
2 T chili powder
2 T cumin
shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream for toppings (optional - not included in nutrition info)


Directions:
Brown ground beef and drain off fat. In a large stock pot, mix the beans, tomato sauce, cooked ground beef, chili powder, and cumin. Cover and cook on medium heat for 30 minutes. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream, if desired.

My son is a no chunk eater. He does not mind the flavor of onions or bell pepper, just the texture, so I cook them in the tomato sauce first and then put them through the blender and we all eat the same chili.

Might be a dumb question but Is it tablespoon or teaspoon ?

It's not a dumb question at all. Typically in recipes, when you see a capitalized "T" that means tablespoon. A lowercase "t" means teaspoon. So, in my recipes, we are talking Tablespoons for this recipe. I hope you enjoy it.
