We all make chili. Be it with beef, turkey or vegetarian. I don’t know about you but I hate having to make sure I have enough of all my spices before I decide to make a chili. Chili is usually a comfort food and requires nothing more than a slow cooker. I find that the premade envelopes that are sold are just too salty for my taste. So to prevent the stress of pulling out all the spices, I’ve prepared a small batch ahead of time. Usually this is enough for 3 chili recipes.

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp of chili powder
  • 3 tsp of cumin
  • 1 1/2 tsp of cayenne pepper
  • ¾ tsp of garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp of onion powder
  • 3 tsp of salt
  • 3/4 tsp of pepper

Directions

  • Put in a small jar and shake well

Make sure to shake well and you are all set. If you want to try this for the first time, just reduce everything by a third. I like a little heat in my chili so I put in cayenne pepper. You can put less if you don’t like that kick or more if you want it really hot. Be careful when you buy the chili powder, there is one that is called super hot and they aren’t kidding. I would never use that in this mixture. You could add some to your chili but be very very careful. I like it hot and a tablespoon makes it too hot.

This is a basic recipe, as always, have fun and make it your own.
