For a deeper flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of tomato paste along with the diced tomatoes. If you prefer a spicier chili, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of your favorite hot sauce. This chili can easily be doubled or tripled for larger crowds. It also freezes well for future meals. For a vegetarian version, substitute the ground beef with 1 (15-ounce) can of black beans and 1 (15-ounce) can of pinto beans.
