Taco Chili

This recipe is one that I made-up
and I just kinda wing it everytime I make it, therefore there is room to adjust the amounts to fit your liking... For example, if you like lots of beans then add more.


Ingredients:
1-2 lbs Ground Beef (I prefer Ground Sirloin because it is leaner)
1 Taco Seasoning Packet
2 14-16 oz cans of Tomato Sauce
1 6-8 oz small can of Tomato Paste
2 14-16 oz cans of Diced Tomatoes
1 14-16 oz can of Black Beans
1/2 jar of Salsa
1/2 cup water or milk (adjustable for desired thickness)
1 can or 1/2 bag frozen Corn

Directions:
Brown the ground beef and mix in 1/2 of the taco seasoning packet (put the rest of the packet straight into the chili). Then you mix all of the ingredients in a crockpot and cook on low for 2-3 hours minimum. It is still good even if you let it cook all day. One tip is to add the corn about a half an hour before you eat if you like it crisp.

Optional Toppings:
Cheese
Sour Cream
Fritos
