Chili

Soup on a Shoestring Day 4 (March 23). Today’s soup is so easy that we cannot honestly call it a ”recipe.” It is more of a trick. Canned Chili sans the Can Taste! Tip/Trick and options in comments.

Use two cans of any chili you can find. Dump each in pot. Ready for the trick? Add a can/jar/bottle of tomato juice. Boom. That’s it. The tomato juice takes away the can taste and improves the consistency.

Now here is where you can get creative. Like Steak and Shake’s chili two ways, chili three ways? Replicate the ways! Serve it with spaghetti, add more beans, put a heaping handful of onions on top, and go crazy with the cheddar cheese. Can you smell that? Wow. Make a baked potato and bathe it with your chili - again with the onions and cheese. Got some hotdogs? Now you are catching on - you may not be able to GO to baseball game right now, but you can have a chili dog and sing your own 7th ending stretch.
