Semi-Homemade Chili image

Busy days don't always give you time to make everything from scratch. This is delicious chili using a bit of a shortcut. Cook completely on the stovetop, or finish in the crock pot.

I've made this chili several times now and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make and the flavor is amazing. I love that I can use pre-made chili sauce to save time.

This chili was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I think I would have preferred to make it from scratch.

This chili was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.

I'm not usually a fan of chili, but this one was actually pretty good. The semi-homemade approach made it easy to make and the flavor was surprisingly complex.
