MJ's World Famous Chili... don't laugh

MJ's World Famous Chili...

This is the chili I make for all occasions, I get some very upset people if I don't bring this to church pot-lucks.


1 Can Bush's Chili Magic
I can diced tomatoes ( use plain or use Rotel for more heat )
1 lb. ground turkey, browned ( or beef or chicken )
1 onion chopped ( optional )


Brown the meat and add the remaining ingredients, simmer until hot through.

For pot-luck, I triple the Chili Magic, and tomatoes, and double the meat. Brown the meat and add all to a crockpot and cook on low for 4 hours.

butter to taste (I use about 2 T.)

Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray. Place chicken in pan. Cover chicken with soy sauce and turn to coat. Sprinkle with rosemary and dot with butter. Bake uncovered at 350 for 40-50 min.

Meaty Chili Dip

This was dinner tonight and was well received. I added a small can of sliced black olives and served it topped with taco cheese, and with tortilla chips to scoop with.



Meaty Chili Dip


1 pound ground beef
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 cup water
1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste
1 package (3 ounces) tomato paste ( I think this is a mistake, not in directions )
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, cubed
1 envelope chili seasoning mix
Corn chips

In a large skillet, cook beef and green pepper over medium until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the water, tomato paste, cream cheese and chili seasoning mix. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered until cheese is melted.

Transfer to a small slow cooker to keep warm (and serve from). Serve with corn chips. For the best dipping, use large corn chips. Yield: 3 cups.
