With the chill of fall upon us the promise of a hot meal that you can prepare for your family is a necessity.  I love this weather, and I crave simple meals this time of year.  I love hearty, hot comfort food that is easy to prepare and can be finished off with a good book and winter quilt for dessert!  I want to give you folks a simple, 6 ingredient recipe that will be sure to warm your belly and heart this season.

Mexican Chili

1 lb. browned, ground beef

15 oz. can of chili beans (Use hot beans for more spice!)

15 oz can of kidney beans

12 oz of salsa (We used the salsa we canned from the summer!)

1 1/4 oz pkg of chili seasoning mix

Cheddar cheese

Combine all of the ingredients in a large pot; add 1/2 - 1 cup of water.  Bring this to a boil over medium heat, and then reduce heat to a simmer for 15 minutes.  Serve in bowls or mason jars, and top with Chedder cheese!  Serves 4.
