Mexican Chili + Naughty Cornbread Recipe

We had this on Sunday for our family dinner and SO many of y’all sent DM’s asking for the recipe. This is SO easy to make and the clean-up is even easier! It is low-fat, high in fiber, and VERY yummy! I love adding sour cream, cheese, avocados, and tortilla chips. You can also add tomatoes, chopped onion, cilantro, salsa, guacamole, olives, or anything else you’d like!

EASY Mexican Chili

  • 1 can kidney beans
  • 1 can black beans
  • 2 cans fat-free refried beans
  • 1 can Ranch Style beans
  • 1 can sweet corn
  • 2 cans diced tomatoes
  • 1 can tomato sauce
  • 1 can rotel original
  • 1 pkg. taco seasoning dry mix
  • 1 pkg. Hiden Valley Ranch dry mix (3 T)
  • 1 lb. lean ground beef
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion

Brown meat with chopped onion. Put in large Crock-Pot with all remaining ingredients (Don’t drain the cans before!). Cook on high for 2-3 hours or low for 4-6. THAT’S IT!!

Naughty Cornbread

  • 1 yellow cake mix
  • 1 box jiffy corn muffin mix
  • 1/4 cup Canola oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups milk

Mix ingredients well, pour in greased 9×13 dish. Bake at 350 for approx 40 minutes. (I usually end up covering mine with foil half way through because it’s browning on the top faster than the inside is cooking. So I’ll just check after 30 minutes by sticking a knife in to see how gooey the inside is. Once the top is browned and it’s not gooey anymore inside, it’s ready!)

    Hi! I tried your chili at a friend’s house and asked for the recipe because it was so good! However I’m having a hard time finding ranch style beans in my area, do you have any suggestions on an alternative? Thank you!

    Also, this was hands down the best corn bread I’ve ever made!
