Home-made Wendy's Chili

Tonight I ended up making a single serving size of chili. I wasn't sure exactly how it would come out, but it wasn't bad at all! I'm a single person, so it's tough to find recipes for just one to make. I'm sure you could multiply the ingredients to size it up if needed.

4 oz lean ground beef (I used 96/4 Meijer brand angus beef that I found on sale a week or two ago)

1/4 cup Ragu Old World Style Sweet Tomato Basil Pasta sauce

2 ounces left over chicken Soup sans chicken (chicken broth, diced onions, diced tomatoes, diced bell peppers - green, red, yellow and orange that was part of my crockpot chicken soup that I made a couple of days ago - but I didn't cut up the chicken, so it was without chicken)

1/4 tsp cinnamon

1/4 tsp pepper

1/4 tsp Mrs. Dash salt-free fiesta lime spice

1/4 cup shredded low-fat cheddar cheese

Brown the ground beef, add in the pasta sauce and chicken broth with veggies. Let it simmer for a while and then add the spices. Continue simmering until liquid is reduced to about 1/2 of original. Serve in a bowl and top with the cheddar cheese.

I'm sure you could substitute any meat for the ground beef. But I wouldn't use anything that would have more fat.

Sounds good, but I like a little "fire" in my chili so i'd probably get rid of the cinnamon and go with some chili powder and cumin instead. :) The leftover soup sounds like a perfect chili base of veggies!!

I can't handle a lot of spice - although the Mrs. Dash Fiesta Lime spices has as the first ingredient Chili Powder. I absolutely LOVE the taste of cinnamon - that's why I included it. With that combo of spices though, it was hard to taste the actual cinnamon. But it was really good.

I'll have to check out that flavor of the Mrs. Dash, I love chili powder and cumin!
