This is adapted from a Cooking Light recipe for Nonstop, No-Chop Chili, which uses ground beef and does not contain black beans. It is so easy to make because you literally open cans and jars and throw them in a pot. You can have it on the table in 30 minutes.
We like to shred a block of Monterey Jack cheese to top it off. And of course we serve it with chili crackers.
The soup freezes well and it’s great in the lunchbox the next day. Makes 6 very generous servings.
Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 1 can Green Giant Niblets corn, drained
- 1 jar Newman’s Own Chunky Salsa Medium
- 1 (16 oz.) can Bush’s Medium chili beans
- 1 can Bush’s black beans
- 1 (14.5 oz.) can petite diced tomatoes
- 2 tbs. chili powder
- 1 tbs. sugar
- 2 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
- 1 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp. salt (optional- I never use it)
Directions
- Throw everything in a pot.
- Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer 25 minutes.
Cook’s Notes
The store was out of medium chili beans when I shopped that day.
The oregano and sugar are not pictured.

It’s 4:45 am in Cali. I want Chili
yummy!!! we are all sick in the house and chili sounds good now!
Chilli is a staple for us when it’s cold. (we are in the middle of summer here). I was wondering, do you take the fiber out of your carb counts?
I love NON CHOP!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for speaking my language
