Basic Spicy Chili

This is a basic chili recipe, but my favorite. Since i am a vegetarian, i omit the beef and add more beans for a great meatless chili. I also add more hot sauce for extra kick. This chili is great served with sour cream and/or cheese.

Steps

In a large skillet , saute beef and onions together until beef is browned.
Drain beef and add to a large soup pot.
Add tomato juice and simmer over medium heat.
Add tomatoes , crushing between fingers to break apart.
Add kidney beans , chili powder , and optional hot sauce.
After mixture comes to a simmer , add baking soda.
Simmer for about 20-30 minutes , adding water if necessary to thin out the chili.
Taste for seasoning.
