Beef Chili
"The grab-and-go chili from the Costco deli is hearty, beefy, and just spicy enough. This makes a full pot for the price of two of their containers — and your kitchen will smell incredible."

The Game Plan
-
Brown ground beef in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, breaking it into small pieces. Drain excess fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the pot.
-
Add onion and bell pepper. Cook 5 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook 1 minute.
-
Stir in chili powder, cumin, paprika, and cayenne. Cook 1 minute until fragrant.
-
Add tomato paste and stir for 2 minutes. Pour in diced tomatoes, kidney beans (drained and rinsed), beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce.
-
Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer. Cook uncovered 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
-
Season with salt and pepper. Serve topped with shredded cheddar, sour cream, and green onions.
