Amanda’s Award Winning Chili

My best friend Amanda made this chili for years in our old neighborhood and she won the best chili award every year so I decided to adopt the recipe as one of my own now! It’s so delicious and a little different from your typical chili. It has spaghetti noodles in it, different right? But it is so delish!

Ingredients:

1 lb. ground beef

1 small onion, diced

1 packet chili seasoning

3 cans petite diced tomatoes

1 can tomato sauce

4 cans chili beans, drained and rinsed

Handful spaghetti noodles

Instructions:

1. Saute ground beef until browned, drain.
2. Add diced onion and let soften.
3. Add chili seasoning, tomatoes, tomato sauce and beans.
4. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 2-3 hours.
5. About 20 minutes before serving, boil water and cook noodles to al dente.
6. Add cooked spaghetti noodles to pot and serve.

This would be delicious with a spoonful of sour cream and a sprinkle of cheese! We always love our chili with some breadsticks too!

***I did the first 2 steps then added the seasoning and tomatoes to the pot and then I transferred it to a crockpot and added beans. I cooked it on high to give it that *simmer* It turned out great!

Nothing feels more like fall than chili!
