Easy & Best Chili Recipe Ever
Do you need a new meal idea tonight? Chili is a kid’s favorite in our household, and I love to make a big pot so we can have leftovers. Chili is also a great meal to feed a big crew, and it freezes great, which makes it great for meal prepping for the future!
Chili Recipe
Chili was a go-to recipe when we were building our home, and we had a bunch of guys over helping out. This was my go-to recipe. This was a perfect meal for hungry men who were tired from working on the house! And I hope your family and friends enjoy this recipe as much as we do!
How do you freeze Chili?
Place extra chili in a freezer-safe container (I prefer to use a glass container) and leave a little space at the top for expansion.
How do you Reheat Chili?
I like to pull out the container of chili from the freezer in the morning and allow it to defrost on the counter. If I don’t plan ahead, I will put the container in a bowl of water to help defrost. And I like to preheat the chili in a pot on the stove.
