Wife: Preparing for Deployment (Part 2) Chili Mix

So here is a great recipe for canning...

Ingredients:
2- 14.5 oz of Hunt's Petite Diced Tomatoes
1/2 small yellow onion
2 jalapenos
4 cloves of garlic
4 tablespoons of chili powder
2 tablespoons of garlic powder
1 tablespoon of onion powder
1 teaspoon of black pepper
1 teaspoon of salt

Directions:

Finely chop onion, jalapenos and garlic.  Cook on the stove with a small amount of oil or water.  Add 2 cans of tomatoes and spices.  Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer.  Fill mixture into 2 quart sized jars, leaving 1/2 inch of space at the top.  (If your mixture leaves more space, you can add/ mix in some water).  Can for 40 min to store.

Directions for use:

Add 2 pounds of cooked ground beef and 2 jars of your preferred beans (I like pinto beans in my chili) with one jar of chili mix.  I like to cook mine on low heat in a crock pot for 8 hours, but it can also be cooked on a stove top by bringing the mixture to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer.

With some melted cheese!
