Y’all know how much I love Fashion but we all know that’s just one small piece of who we are (say whaaaat?!) . . . SO to kick off the new year, I thought I would start some new segments on the blog by incorporating some avenues that have been so important to me over the years. And ~ if there’s anything specific you’d like to hear about, please let me know!!

Anyone that knows me knows I love football! Especially playoff games and of course, the Super Bowl!! Maybe it’s the combo of football, friends, family and all the great food that gets me so hyped but I just can’t wait!!

And since we’re just days away from Super Bowl Weekend, I wanted to share one of my very favorite recipes!

It’s simple, quick and can easily Serve A SMALL ARMY!

 

 

Chili ~ Chili ~ Chili!!

 

Now before you tune out (who doesn’t already have a recipe for chili ??!) – let me tell you that I Don’t Even LIKE Chili !!!   

The Only Chili I Enjoy Is  “MY CHILI”!

 

 

 

 

Y’all,  It Is FABULOUS!!

 

 

 

This recipe is oh-so-yummy and the secret is an Ahhhmazing,

AWARD WINNING Chili Mix from Raven’s Original (you can order here!)

 

 

 

 

 

Here’s All You Need:

 

1 packet of Raven’s Original Chili Grande

2 lbs (I Use FOUR!) Lean Ground Beef or Turkey

1 large Diced Onion

3-5 8oz Cans Of Beans Of Your Choice
(I Use These)
1 8oz Can Dark Kidney Beans
1 8oz Can Light Kidney Beans
2 8oz Cans Black Beans

1 large Can Diced Tomatoes (I Use  Petite Diced) (And tomatoes with chili peppers if you like it hot!!)

28(ish)oz Can of Tomato Juice

12oz Beef Broth

1 small Bag Frozen Corn (I Use Both Yellow and White Corn)

 

Brown the beef and drain. And then mix with the remainder of the ingredients in a large Crockpot.

Add a little sweet (I add a bit of sugar to mine!) or heat (for you crazy hot-n-spicy lovers!) and you’re all set!

(I actually double my recipe and use TWO Crockpots cause this Chili Freezes SO Well!!!)

 

Serve traditionally in a bowl with crackers (we do cornbread muffins!!) OR add a buffet of toppings (chips, cheese, sour cream, chopped tomatoes and lettuce) for the VERY BEST Nachos around!!

I really hope you give it a try ~ Y’all Will LOVE IT!!

 

Thank you for stopping by, it really does mean so much!

And enjoy the Weekend and the Big Game!!  Go Eagles!
