Easy chili mommas! This is my “how to week”, apparently, although I did not necessarily intend for it to be that. Here are some of my how-to’s this week: how to make chili using a can of salsa, how to bake bacon in your oven, how to make a baked potato in your microwave, and how to make your own Bisquick mix. Hopefully, one or two of these will help somebody somewhere someday. :0)

Ingredients:

1 onion chopped (Go here for directions on how to cut a bag of onions and freeze them)
2 cans (14.5 oz. each) kidney beans
1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce
1 packet of chili seasoning
1 lb 90% lean ground beef cooked, and drained
2 cups fat-free salsa

Here is what you do:

Step One: Mix the ingredients into the crockpot.
Step Two: Allow to cook for about 4-5 hours on low. Serve on a baked potato. See next post for directions on making the baked potato in a microwave.

That’s all. Refrigerate the leftovers for the meal tomorrow, or freeze the rest and use it for another meal later.
