Instructions
 

  • In a large frying pan, cook the ground beef and chopped onion over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.
  • Stir in garlic salt, chili powder, and the tomato sauce, chopped tomatoes, and tomato paste. Let it simmer for a few minutes to combine the flavors.
  • Add the can of chili beans to the meat mixture, stirring well to incorporate. Continue to cook for an additional 5-10 minutes.
  • If using a crockpot, transfer the meat mixture into the crockpot and cook on low for 4 hours. If using the stovetop, keep the mixture warm after cooking.

  • Allow guests to create their own plates by layering the meat mixture on top of the rice or Fritos, followed by shredded cheese and their choice of toppings.
