I have been making this easy chili recipe for years now.  When my family had to start eating gluten free I had to make a lot of our foods from scratch and I quickly discovered how easy some of the recipes were, like this chili!  

Easy Chili Recipe

Before making my own chili I use to buy canned chili or chili packets to add to ground beef, this recipe taste so much better and is made with better ingredients.  

Easy Chili Recipe for Frito Pie

This chili recipe is really easy to make and is quick to prepare. It is my go to meal when we are in a crunch.   I like the options it gives too; one of my boys will eat as a chili hot dog, one will eat it with chips for a “Frito Pie” meal, or we can just eat by itself with cheese and sour cream on top!  This hot dog pictured is gluten free; the all-purpose flour used in the chili is gluten free, the bun is a Kinnikinnick hot dog bun (found in the freezer section).

This is a very mild spiced chili, so if you want a more heat add more chili powder or even some cayenne pepper.

I hope you enjoy this recipe. Please let me know if you did or how you made it your own!

    In high school we’d sometimes to to the Dairy Queen for lunch. They’d slice open the side of a small bag of Fritos and then put chile on top.
