Cheap Meals For Your Family

This is a simple yet delicious Crock Pot Chili dinner. I find creating a simple ground beef meal in the crockpot can save both time and money.

I can get very lazy in the kitchen at times making it difficult to resist the temptation to just pick up the phone and order dinner.

I have found two solutions to this dilemma.

First I try to always have simple family meals I can pull from the freezer and second crockpot cooking.

If I start my meal first thing in the morning then there is absolutely no way I will let a good meal go to waste no matter how bad my day has been.

This crockpot recipe for chili is easy to prepare and yet another great dinner idea under 5 dollars.

Cook Time: 3-5 hours on low
Meal Preparation Ingredients:

Meal Preparation Directions:

1. Brown ground beef, drain
2. Add ground beef, stewed tomatoes and chili beans to crockpot
3. Add spices to your taste
