The Easiest Chili Recipe Ever
The convenience of this easy chili recipe can't be beaten.
Servings: 8 -10 servings
Ingredients
- 28 ounces ranch style pinto beans, do not drain
- 14 ounces black beans, drained and rinsed
- 14 ounces white beans, do not drain
- 14 ounces tomato sauce
- 14 ounces diced tomatoes
- 14 ounces fire roasted tomatoes with green chile
- 7 ounces chopped green chile
- 14 ounces yellow corn, drained
- 2 tablespoons Mexican spice mix or taco seasoning
- Optional: 1-2 lbs meat of your choice cooked
- Toppings: shredded cheese sour cream, green onions, corn chips
Instructions
- STOVE-TOP DIRECTIONS: Combine all ingredients in a large pot. Bring to a simmer over medium low heat, cover with lid and simmer, stirring occasionally for 2-10 hours. (Yes, you can simply bring the chili to a boil, simmer 15 minutes and then serve it. However, if you have the chance to cook it longer, I highly recommend it. The flavors will change into something even better if you allow them to simmer together for a while.) Serve with the toppings of your choice. Enjoy!
- CROCK-POT DIRECTIONS: Combine all ingredients in a large crock-pot. Cook on LOW for 8-12 hours. Serve with the toppings of your choice. Enjoy!

Notes
I've made versions of this chili both with and without meat. Most of the time, my go-to choices are ground beef or hot breakfast sausage when making this recipe.
