How to Make Zippy Chili
- In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, brown 1 lb ground beef and 1 medium onion (chopped) over medium heat until beef is no longer pink. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add 8 oz cremini mushrooms (sliced), 1 bell pepper (any color, chopped), and 2 cloves garlic (minced). Cook and stir for 3 minutes, until vegetables are softened.
- Stir in 4 cups water, 2 (14.5 oz) cans diced tomatoes (undrained), and 2 tablespoons taco seasoning.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Add 2 (15 oz) cans kidney beans (drained and rinsed) and 1 (15 oz) can pinto beans (drained and rinsed). Simmer for another 30 minutes, or until chili has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Top with shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, or your favorite chili toppings.
