Canned soup and beans are the secrets to the recipe's rapid preparation. For even faster meal making brown, drain and freeze the ground beef when time allows. When ready to use, just combine frozen cooked beef with the other ingredients and simmer as directed.—Jean Ward, Montogomery, Texas

Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
  • 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed tomato soup, undiluted
  • 1 can (16 ounces) chili beans, undrained
  • 2 to 3 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1/2 cup water, optional

Directions

  1. In a saucepan, brown ground beef until no longer pink; drain. Add soup, beans and chili powder. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Add water if a thinner soup is desired.
