1 pkg. 1.25 oz. chili seasoning mix
1 lb. ground beef
2 cans (8 oz. each) tomato sauce
1 can (15 to 16 oz.) kidney or pinto beans, undrained
Assorted toppings: shredded cheese, chopped onions, or sour cream

Brown meat in a large skillet on medium-heat. Drain fat.

Stir in seasoning mix, tomato sauce, and beans. Bring to a boil; cover. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes or until beans are soft, stirring occasionally.

Serve with toppings, if desired.

Cooks Note: We like to add cayenne or chopped poblano peppers, minced garlic and onions, a few drops Worcestershire sauce, and at the end, a can of chopped tomatoes with chilis.
