  • 2 Tablespoons flour -may also use corn starch or corn flour for a gluten free chili mix!
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½-1 teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon sugar
  • ¼-1/2 teaspoon crushed chilli pepper flakes (or to taste)

  • 2 Tablespoons ground cumin
  • 2-3 Tablespoons salt

Instructions
One Pot Chili Mix Instructions
  1. Place all ingredients into your pot of chili (Homemade Chili Recipe below), and stir to blend.
  2. Make a small batch first, and adjust the measurements and flavors to your liking before adapting them to the big batch.
Bulk Chili Mix Instructions
  1. Place flour, chili powder, cumin, salt, garlic powder, and sugar in a blender jar.
  2. Blend into a fine powder. (Or just skip the blender and dump all into your jar)
  3. Pour into a clean and dry glass jar.
  4. Add chili pepper flakes and dried onions to the mix and shake to blend.
  5. Label "Chili Mix", and note the recipe for making homemade chili below.
  6. I also like to stick on a label with the bulk mix recipe, for easier refills...and shove a little coffee scoop in there if you've got an extra one.
One Pot of Homemade Chili
  1. Add ¼ to ⅓ cup of your dry spice mix to one pound of browned and drained ground beef.
  2. Stir well, and add in one 15 ounce can of plain tomato sauce, ¼ c. water and a 15 oz. can of undrained chili or kidney beans.
  3. Simmer uncovered for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
