Assembly Directions:

In a frying pan, brown the ground beef; drain.  Put the drained beef and the remaining ingredients into a 6-quart pot.  Cover the pot; let it simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 15 minutes.

 

Freezing and Cooking Directions:

Cool and freeze in freezer bags or rigid containers.

To serve: Thaw and heat in microwave or on stovetop. 

 

Nanci’s Comments:

This tastes great!  Better than Wendy’s because I can control the spices.  Our family likes chili pretty mild so I left out the cumin and cayenne pepper and it was just perfect for us!  We ate 4 C. right off the stove and I froze the rest in two 4 C. Ziploc freezer containers.
