Provided by mikeimmell
Number Of Ingredients 15
Steps:
- STOVE TOP DIRECTIONS: Cook macaroni according to directions. While the macaroni is cooking, cook the ground beef and diced onion together until beef is brown and onion is tender. Drain off fat. (If you used 93/7 or leaner ground beef, you will not have to do this.) Add the diced tomatoes and mix. Stir in tomato puree. Add spices, garlic, onion powder, salt and pepper, adjusting to your taste. Add chiles. Allow to simmer slowly, or remove from heat entirely until the macaroni is done (average about 13 minutes for macaroni to cook al dente). Drain the macaroni. If you allowed the chili mixture to simmer while the macaroni was cooking, be sure to rinse the macaroni well before adding it in, otherwise the macaroni will drink up all the liquid and the chili mac will be too dry. Mix the macaroni in gently until completely covered with the chili mixture and enjoy! CROCK POT DIRECTIONS: Cook macaroni according to directions. Drain and put in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until you get home. While the macaroni is cooking, cook the ground beef until its fully cooked and then add the diced onion and cook until it starts to turn translucent. You don't have to fully cook the onion because it will continue cooking in the crock pot. Drain off fat. Generously spray your crock pot with cooking spray. Now add all of the remaining ingredients to your crock pot, **everything except the cooked macaroni. Cook on Low setting for 4 hours. After you get home, simply take the macaroni from the fridge, sprinkle with a little bit of water and heat for a minute or 2 in your microwave and then add the cooked macaroni to the meat mixture in your crock pot. Gently stir through the meat mixture and heat for a few minutes before serving. :) Enjoy !! Serve with the optional garnishes listed above ....

CROCK POT (OR STOVE TOP) CHILI
This chili isn't quite Cincinnati-style, but not Texas-style either. It is a yummy combo of both; not too sweet, not to chunky, just right! My husband requests it so much I can make it without thinking. It is really simple to make, easy on the budget, and you can make it in the morning and not worry about it till diner time.

- Cover and leave in crock pot on low for 6 (give or take a little is fine) hours.
- If making on stove top reduce cook time to 4 hours.
