2/3 cup white rice
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef, chopped onion and diced green peppers.
  • Add chili powder, dried mustard, corn, tomatoes, tomato sauce and water, but don't add the rice quite yet! Bring this mixture to a boil and then add your rice. Reduce heat to low, cover and let it simmer for about 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use leftover rice: If you have leftover cooked rice, this is a great way to use it up. Simply reheat the rice in the microwave or on the stovetop before adding it to the chili.
  • Choose your chili recipe wisely: There are many different chili recipes out there, so choose one that you think your family will enjoy. If you're not sure which one to choose, try a mild chili or a chili with a smoky flavor.
  • Add your own toppings: Once the chili is cooked, you can add your own toppings to taste. Some popular toppings include shredded cheese, sour cream, diced avocado, and chopped cilantro.
  • Make it ahead of time: Chili is a great meal to make ahead of time. Simply cook the chili and then let it cool completely. Once it's cool, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
