I didn't choose the Chili Life. The Chili Life chose me.

Why hello there fellow food eaters! How was your week? A disappointment? I felt the same way after looking at my bank account. But enough of that! Let’s get our cook hustle on! For this week is the long awaited promise of 
CHIL.

This!


Not This!

Here’s what we will need:



Two Saucepans (Which are really pots. Why can’t people just say get two pots?)
A thingamathing (The thing where you poke the food and turn it occasionally)
Rice
Van Camp’s Chil (without beans)
Salt
Shredded Cheese
Measuring Cups

Step 1: Fill up one saucepan with two cups of water. Put rice in. The amount should vary on how many people you are making for.




After putting a dab of salt into the pot, turn the heat mid-way on the stove and place the lid on so that it could boil faster. The rice should be ready after 15 minutes.



Step 2: Ready the chili. Normally you can put it in a microwave like so.

Boing. 

But I’m going in depth with this, so I’ll simply cook it on the stove.

Open the can like this:



Not like this:

Sheesh, where you from? Chile?!

Turn the heat a little above half-way and leave it for a good 6-8 minutes. Also be sure to stir it around every once in awhile.

Step 3: At this point you can add anything you want to the chil. For instance, I’ll be adding shredded cheese.




Step  4: Mix it all together and you're done! 



Alsoooooo

 Confession Hour!!!

I forgot to take a picture of the final product, mainly because I was so hungry to get to the final step of eating the food. I mean. It's food. 

 But none the less, here’s what it would have looked like more or less.

Exactly. Like. This.

First words on eating the Chili: 

Mmmm (mischievous laughter) All the flavors seem to be kicking in!

The source of this recipe I had prepared tonight was given to me by my one and only mother. Whom by coincidence also bore this child:

 
Also guess who gave into peer pressure about installing iOS?

See ya’ll next week!
