Six Gun Chili

Spencer wanted to make food tonight. He found this Six Gun Chili Mixin's package at Walmart.

What you need
~1 pkg Six Gun Chili Mixin's - 10 points for whole package
~water (we ended up using 5 cups but it will depend on how much you will want to make it thinner or not) - 0 points
~2 pounds raw ground beef (we used 85%lean and it cooked out to be 1 1/2 pounds) - 32 points
~14.5 ounce tomatoes with juice (we used diced) - 0 points

Other additions:
~Pinto beans drained (we used a 20 ounce can) - 18 points
~ 1 onion chopped - 0 points
~ Black olives (we used 3 ounces) - 3 points

Directions:
~ Add two large brown pouches of Mixin's to 1 cup of water in a bowl...Set aside.
~Brown 2 pounds hamburger(ground beef)(we cooked it fully)... drain the grease. (after the grease was drained we weighed the cooked beef and it came out to 1 1/2 pounds cooked. But it will vary depending on what % of fat it is. Best thing to do is weigh it and count the points then!
~add 14.5 oz can of tomatoes (juice and all)
~ stir Mixin's and water mixture into the meat and tomatoes. if wanted, add drained can of pinto or kidney beans. Bring to a boil.
~ Now add small red pepper pouch for heat levels like these:
TENDERFOOT CHILI: (Family Style)... wave the unopened pouch over the chili... don't add any... but tell 'em you did.
OUTLAW CHILI: (Medium Hot)... stir in 1/2 the pepper... hot enough to drive the in-laws out.
SIX GUN CHILI: (Hot)... add all the pepper-thenstir fast if you want to keep the spoon!
(We used the whole thing and it was not too spicy. it had a good flavor with the right amount of spice!)
~Simmer uncovered for 30 mins. or longer. adding water as desired for a "thick stew" consistency. (At this point we added in the onions and black olives) As an option, the large white pouch of masa flour can be used to thicken chili. Mix it with warm water to a batter thickness and add to the simmering chili. (we opted for this and glad we did!) You've just made the best chili that ever met a mouth!


We really like this chili. You can tweak it however you would like. We did and accounted for the points!

With everything it made 9 Cups of chili. Total points added up to 63. So each 1 cup serving was 7 points. But each batch can be different point wise. So best bet is to keep track of what you add in and measure and weigh everything.

I highly recommend this to everyone. Especially if you like chili!
