Chili in a Biscuit Bowl
Vegetable oil cooking spray
2 cups biscuit baking mix (recommended: Bisquick)
2/3 cup whole milk
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Flour, for dusting the work surface
1 pound ground chuck
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, chopped
2 (14-ounce) cans Mexican-style stewed tomatoes
1 (15-ounce) can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
Toppings:
Shredded sharp Cheddar
Sour cream
Sliced green onions (white and green parts)
Corn chips
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Invert a muffin tin and spray the underside with vegetable oil cooking spray.
Stir together the baking mix, milk, and cayenne. Shape into a ball. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead 3 or 4 times. Divide the ball into 6 pieces. Roll each piece into a 6-inch circle. Place a dough circle over the back of each muffin cup. Press around the cup to form a bowl shape. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned. Let cool slightly. Remove the biscuit bowls and reserve.
Brown the ground chuck over medium heat in a Dutch oven. Add the onion and green pepper and continue to cook until the meat is completely browned and the vegetables are tender. Drain off any fat and discard. Stir in the tomatoes, beans, chili powder, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, cover, and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 35 minutes.
When ready to serve, spoon the hot chili into the biscuit bowls.

SweetRevenge's AMAZING Chili!!
2 pounds ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
1 large green pepper, chopped
2- 15 ounce cans of kidney beans
15 ounce can of diced or whole tomatoes
1 small can of tomato sauce
2 tablespoons chili powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
Cook the ground beef in a deep sauté pan until beef is lightly browned. Drain and add the chopped onions and peppers and cook until peppers are soft and the onions are translucent. Add the kidney beans, diced tomatoes, can of tomato sauce and chili powder and heat until boiling. Turn the heat down to low and let the mixture simmer for several hours. You can add salt and pepper and more chili powder to taste.
Ways to make your chili stand out:
Meats: Try using a mixture of ground beef, ground pork or ground turkey.
Use cubed or shredded beef, pork or chicken in lieu of the ground meat or add some ground sausage to your meat mixture.
Beans: Try using black beans, white beans, limas or pinto beans instead of– or in addition to– kidney beans. A blend of beans will give your chili a more interesting taste and texture.
Seasonings and spices: For a Mexican flair, add some ground cumin or cilantro. A small amount of dry mustard or some chopped oregano or parsley are spices that will add a unique taste to your chili.
Vegetables: Add some deseeded mild or hot chili peppers or jalapeños. Some cloves of minced garlic will kick your chili recipe up a notch. Chopped celery, red and yellow bell peppers or green onions will add color and extra flavor to your recipe. Surprise the judges by adding something unexpected, like mushrooms or a tablespoon of horseradish.
Other things to add: Sweeten your chili up with a tablespoon of packed brown sugar. Add a can of corn or a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce or Tabasco hot sauce. A can of beef broth will give your chili a richer flavor. For more tomato flavor, add a can of tomato paste in addition to the tomato sauce. To add a real kick to your chili, add a cup of beer, red wine or a few dashes of whiskey. Mexicans are known for adding chocolate to their chili recipes– add a few tablespoons of ground dark chocolate or cocoa powder.
Toppings: If you are permitted to serve accompaniments with your chili, have toppings such as sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, jalapenos and chopped onions available, as well as packets of saltine crackers. These finishing touches will help to enhance the flavor of your one-of-a-kind chili recipe.

I do use the seasoning from McCormick, but I do the rest my own way:
Cooked ground beef, drained
2 cans kidney beans
2 cans black beans
2 cans of whole, peeled plum tomatoes
2 chopped green bell peppers
1 chopped large yellow onion
1 can tomato paste
1 package of McCormick chili seasoning (mild)
Usually I fry up the peppers and onions first to get them going and then mix them into the chili. I'll also sometimes substitute a can of garbanzo beans instead of one of the cans of black beans. Not everyone likes garbanzo so it's all about preference.
I then boil up some pasta (usually the spirals). Put some pasta at the bottom of a bowel, then some shredded cheddar cheese, then some chili and then some more cheese. It's one of my favorite meals. Now that you have me thinking about it, maybe I'll make some tonight.
