Easy Homemade One Pot Chili, the best full of ground beef, beans and tomatoes Chili, make it as spicy as you like!

I have been making this Chili recipe for over 20 years. It is the one we love and the only one I make.

Naturally I use Borlotti beans instead of Kidney Beans since that is what I have. I really like Borlotti Beans so I think they work better and taste better.

Being back in Toronto for a couple of weeks makes me want a bowl of Chili almost every day. I have experienced winter again for the first time in 20 years.

My daughter and I spent 4 days in Winnipeg with a temperature of -18, now that is cold. We went from +20 in Rome, Sunny and warm to freezing our butts off.

But the warmth of friends and family just can’t be beat.

Then I arrived in Toronto, she was back to Vancouver and I warmed up to a balmy -8 with snowfalls.

So here I am 4 days away from my departure with a beautiful sunny day of +6, but don’t get too excited tonight we are hitting a low of -12. It’s Canada and you just never know, and I love it!

I also love seeing a few Canadians in shorts during the short “Heat Spell”. I laugh when I think Italians get out their winter coat, boots, gloves, hats and scarves and moaning about how cold it is at +6.

Who am I kidding, I’m one of those people now too! So if you are feeling the cold or it’s still cold, a nice big bowl of Easy Homemade One Pot Chili will certainly help warm you up! Don’t for get to serve it with some Puff Pastry Twists. Buon Appetito!

          Hi Steve, I have never frozen it but I’m sure it would be fine, freeze it once it’s cooled down and be sure to eat it within 2 months.

        Hi Rosemary! I sure don’t miss those Canadian winters! LOL They’re not too bad in northern Germany, but it rains a lot during the fall and winter months. I always crave the sun. 🙂

        Your chili looks and sounds absolutely delicious!! I think my kids would love this version! I just won’t add to much chili flakes or my boys will complain that it’s too hot. 🙂

        Thanks for sharing your wonderful recipe!

          Hi Rosa, it’s funny when you don’t experience the winter for awhile and then when you do, you realize how cold it really is. Thanks and I hope you enjoy it. 🙂

          Hi Judy, along with kidney beans chili powder is hard to find so I used hot pepper flakes instead. Although I did update the ingredients. Thanks
