Cocoa Chile Recipe
Makes 12 cups
Ingredients
3 ears fresh corn
1 pound Nature’s Promise organic ground beef
1-28 ounce can Nature’s Promise whole peeled tomatoes
1-15.5 ounce can Nature’s Promise black beans, drained and rinsed
2-15.5 ounce cans Nature’s Promise kidney beans, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons good-quality chili powder
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon cumin
Instructions
Shuck corn and remove silk. Stand corn up on a cutting board and run a chef’s knife down the side of the corn removing all the kernels. Place kernels in a small bowl reserving for later use.
Brown the ground beef in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. When the meat is browned, drain the fat from the pan. Add the tomatoes with their juices, breaking up whole tomatoes with a wooden spoon. Add the beans, chili powder, cocoa, and cumin. Heat to a simmer and taste for salt. Add the corn kernels. Cook for about 10 minutes at a low simmer. Serve plain or over rice or pasta.
This chili improves in the fridge overnight and freezes well.
