It’s Chilly Time!

by Carrie Raab on February 8, 2013

It’s Chilly Time!

With the cooler weather, comes the desire to make soup! This week we are making Chili at our house. How about you? What have you been cooking? There are only a handful of times that I get to make soup since we live in Florida. I do not like to unless the weather is cool outside. So, whenever it is ‘cool outside’ I take advantage and make some soup!

Cook ground beef in a skillet on medium heat. Lightly saute onion and peppers for a few minutes on the stove. Add all ingredients to the crock pot and stir. Heat on high 4 hours or on low heat 6-8 hours. 

That’s it.  Add some sour cream and cheese if you so desire on top. Dig in and enjoy! Do you make chili? How do you make it?

So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.(1 Corinth. 10:13)
