Chili Mix in a Jar Recipe
with Printable Gift Tag
by Jane Lake
This chili seasoning mix makes a neat, inexpensive gift in a jar recipe, and you may already have all the ingredients. We've included a free printable tag to attach instructions for using your gift.
Chili is one of those rib-warming homemade meals that goes great with a salad and fresh bread. This mix is easy to assemble and suitable for gift-giving to almost anyone.
This particular recipe is a medium spiced chili seasoning that will make six meals. If you like mild chili, cut the chili powder down; if you like spicy, increase it or add crushed hot pepper flakes to taste.

To Assemble this Gift in a Jar:

Recipe instructions are as follows:
Brown or microwave 1 pound of ground beef (Optional: you can chop and add an onion if you wish). Sprinkle 1/3 cup of chili seasoning mix over beef, and stir well. Add a 15 oz can of crushed tomatoes; a 15 oz can undrained kidney beans; a 14 oz can of baked beans. Simmer or reheat in the microwave for 20 minutes until flavors are mixed and chili is hot. Enjoy!
