Welcome to Easy Freezer Meals. Today we are making a delicious Chili. This dish is so great for cold nights when you need something tasty and spicy to warm you up from the inside out.
There are so many adjustments that you can make to this recipe so feel free to spice it up or down as you see fit. If you have extra veggies in your fridge this is a great recipe to toss it all together. Zucchini, corn, broccoli, celery, you are the author of this chili recipe!! I also like beans in mine but if you hate beans then feel free to omit them.
I used grams as a measuring unit as it’s more precise.
This recipe has been adapted from the following recipe:
Recipe:
1 pound cooked Black Beans (if you use canned then drain the liquid)
1 pound cooked Kidney Beans
23 Grams of minced garlic
1 pound diced onion
1/2 pound diced red bell pepper
1/2 pound diced Yellow Bell pepper
43 grams of chili powder
13 grams of powder cumin
17 chipotle chili powder
4 grams of dried oregano
9 grams of smoked paprika
13 grams kosher salt
3 grams pepper
5 grams of garlic salt
4 grams of powder chicken stock
40 grams of Masa
1/2 pound bacon
1 pound Pork
1 pound Beef
1- 28 oz can of crusted tomatoes (with juice)
1- 28 oz can of stewed or diced tomatoes (with juice)
I hope you have a scale 🙂
Start by cooking the bacon on a medium heat till it gets nice and crispy. In the same pot add the onions and bell peppers and cook till softened. Add the garlic and cook a few minutes more. Now add the beef and pork along with all the seasonings (except the masa) and brown the meat. Make sure you break up any large clumps.
In a small container mix the masa with the liquid from the canned tomatoes. This will create a slurry (you can add a little water to this if you need to thin it a bit). Add the tomatoes and the slurry to your chili mix. Stir well to combine. Finally add the beans and taste for seasoning adjustment.
When finished freeze in freezer friendly containers. Enjoy.
We like to use this chili for all sorts of things. Chili mac, nachos, topping on a burger, chili and fries, or chili and rice. If you try this let me know!!

If you are looking for a meat tenderizer/cutlet maker you have to check this one out from K-Mont. This unit is what we now use to make our Chicken fried steaks, Chicken cordon bleu, and all of our tender cutlets. Just so you know this unit is quality. Its built to last (solid construction) and it does exactly what it’s supposed to do. The owners of the company are the inventors of this product and it is family run. It’s made in Poland and they can ship internationally (that’s how I got mine). Here is their site:
