I added it to the meat along with tomatoes, a splash of water and also red kidney beans and done! Yes, even though I am embarrassed to confess to it now, I have to admit that I used a shop-bought mix to make that meal in the past. Yet there is something even more awkward. When that ready to prepare package wasn't readily available any longer, I quit preparing chilli con carne. Why? I reflected then that making it from scratch was too complicated and that I would certainly never accomplish the exact same taste.
