Ever have one of those days where you just know the whole day is going to be busy and you won't have time to prepare a decent meal? Yeah..me neither;). For those of you who DO have days like that now and then, here is a super easy recipe to try. Make it up in the morning in about 30 minutes and put it in the crock pot to simmer for as long as you need to. We like to eat our chili with a bun and some shredded cheddar cheese.
