Ingredients:
1 T olive oil
1 onion
2 cloves garlic

1 15-oz can pinto beans (drained)
1 15-oz can kidney beans (drained)
1 lb frozen sweet corn, thawed
pepper jack cheese
Directions:
Mince garlic, chop onion and peppers. I used two jalepenos (and extra garlic) because I like my chili *hot*!

ReplyDeletethat chili looks SO yum
ReplyDeleteMmm, corn bread is my favourite. Would make this if I hadn't already spent 95% of this weeks budget on day 3. Maybe next weekend!
