Beef and Bean Chili image

This tangy chili from Linda Charlier of East Cleveland, Ohio, is chock-full of beef, beans and rich tomato flavor. Linda suggests serving it over cooked brown rice, a baked potato or with a crusty loaf of warm bread. "If there are any leftovers, it freezes well and also makes yummy omelets or filling for homemade burritos," she adds.

This chili is a great make-ahead meal. I like to make a big batch on the weekend and then freeze it in individual portions. It's perfect for busy weeknights.

I'm a vegetarian, but I still love this chili! I simply omit the beef and add an extra can of beans. It's just as delicious and satisfying.
