This delicious meaty chili is made with cans of Manwich Original Sloppy Joe Sauce, and a variety of canned beans (for extra added fiber). It's meaty, yet hearty, and not too spicy!

How To Make manwich chili

  • Step 1
    Spray the inside of a Dutch oven with olive oil cooking spray.
  • Step 2
    Cook the beef and onion in the Dutch oven over medium-high heat; till the beef is no longer pink, and the onion is tender. (I found it only took 5 minutes to cook the onion and brown the meat.) Stir and crumble the meat with a fork while cooking.
  • Step 3
    Lower the heat, and add the minced garlic, stir and cook for just 30 seconds.
  • Step 4
    Stir in the chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder, then add the Manwich and tomato sauce, and stir.
  • Step 5
    Cover the Dutch oven; cook and heat the meat and sauce over the lowest simmer you can get for 20 minutes; stirring occasionally.
  • Step 6
    Add the kidney beans, stir, then cover, and cook/simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Step 7
    Ladle the chili into bowls, and garnish each bowl with a bit of the shredded cheese and sour cream.
  • Step 8
    Note: Recently I made this chili, and I substituted a (15.5-oz.) can of Chile Verde southwest beans to replace the (15-oz.) can of dark red kidney beans, which gave this chili even more flavor, as I didn't drain off the juice, which added more flavor to the chili.
