BBQ Chili with Corn

Sometimes I crave change. It doesn't have to be a huge change, just enough to shake things up a bit. This goes for cooking too. Sometimes just the same-old flavors don't do it for me. I really loved this recipe that we made just last week because it wasn't a huge change from regular chili, but it was different enough and tasty enough to make me want to make it again! It's really simple too, so give it a try if you're craving something a little different!


Barbecue Chili with Corn
(from realmomkitchen, found here)

•1 lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef
•1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
•1 can (22 oz) Bush’s southern pit barbecue grilling beans, undrained
•1 can (14.5 oz) fire roasted diced tomatoes, undrained
•1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
•1 can corn, undrained
•1 tablespoon chili powder
•1 teaspoon ground cumin
•1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (2 oz)
•2 cups corn chips

1.In heavy 3-quart saucepan, cook beef and onion over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is thoroughly cooked; drain.

2.Stir in remaining ingredients except cheese and corn chips. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until corn is tender. Top individual servings with cheese and corn chips.

p.s. It's not spicy, if you were wondering.
