This is a very good chili made with pineapple for sweetness. Since this is a large recipe, you might want to go half-batch if this is just for a small family.

Time 40m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds ground beef
6 onions, chopped
2 red bell peppers, seeded and chopped
2 (16 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes, with juice
2 (15.5 ounce) cans kidney beans, with liquid
1 (16 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (16 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Heat a large Dutch oven until hot over high heat. Add the ground beef, and cook until barely pink, stirring constantly to break into small pieces. Stir in onions and bell pepper, cook until the meat has browned, and the onions have softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour meat into a large mesh strainer and press to expel excess fat.
  • Place meat back into Dutch oven along with stewed tomatoes, kidney beans, tomato sauce, and pineapple chunks; season with chili powder and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes, or until chili reaches desired consistency.

ALOHA CHILI

Such a great recipe. Super quick and easy!! We serve it with Kings Hawaiian Rolls. Also I usually make it the night before and let it sit in the fridge overnight and then reheat in the crock pot before serving. It just tastes better this way. Another twist our family uses for this recipe is we use 1 lb ground beef and then we buy 1 lb of steak and put it through the food processer it gives a more chunky texture to the chili but it is just as delightful using 2 lbs ground beef.

HAWAIIAN CHILI



Hawaiian Chili image

This is a great alternative to a traditional chili. It is especially great for Spring and Summer as it is much lighter and a bit sweet and spicy. It is very easy to make and can even be done on a camping trip as the ingredients (except for the cheese and bread) are all canned or dry. I actually dreamed about this recipe, woke up the next day and wrote it down. I have never found a similar chili so I consider this a one of a kind creation. I love it for lunch or supper, especially with a slice of swiss cheese melted on top and slice of buttered french bread. It is even better the second day as all the flavors get a chance to meld together.
