Budget Friendly Chili

by lifeondeerrun Leave a Comment

budget friendly chili One of my favorite winter time meals is chili! Not only is it hearty and warm, but also can be very inexpensive.  I love this budget-friendly chili for my family. It makes enough to feed the six of us and then the next day I like to add macaroni noodles to it for chili mac. I make mine on a stove but you could definitely throw this together in a crock pot if you like. The best part about chili is you can’t really go wrong and can add as many toppings as you like. My husband likes cheese and jalapenos in his and I like cream cheese and cheddar cheese in mine.

This Budget Friendly Chili only cost me less than $10.00!! How often can you feed a family of six for less than $10??? Yeah very rare, especially since I can stretch it into 2 dinners by adding noodles the next day! With this savings you should definitely check out my dessert recipes! Be sure to stop back by and tell me how you liked the recipe and what toppings you added to yours.

*I generally grocery shop at Ruler Foods(Kroger) or Walmart*budget friendly chili
