Preparation

Step 1

1. Heat oil on high in Ninja. Salt and cook ground beef, turkey, or chicken, and onions until it is no longer pink. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds.

2. Stir in chili seasoning mix, then add remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, or longer if you want a deeper flavor.

3. Add water and s&p as needed.

4. Serve with cornbread, tortilla chips, biscuits, or crackers. Great topped with avocados, green onions, cheese and/or sour cream.

Spice it up more with hot ground pepper, chopped jalapeño or mild chiles, cilantro, or other favorite ingredients.

The chili is done after 10 minutes of simmering, but I like to let it go for a couple of hours for a deeper flavor.

Don't skip the carrot puree, it makes this dish amazing!
