Keto Beef Chili

When I set out to make a bean-free chili I decided that it was not really that hard to do. Beans are actually just cheap filler for an already hearty recipe. I upped the bacon and the beef and I pretty much had my same recipe.

The carbs in this chili recipe actually come from the tomatoes, onions and peppers. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather get my carbs from vegetables than Doritos. Of course I don’t ever want to go overboard with my carbs in any form, but when I want Keto Beef Chili this is my jam.

One Pot Meal

It’s always nice to toss everything into one pot and just let all the flavors meld together. Keto Beef Chili has all the flavor from the beef and seasons. The beans in traditional chili are just cheap filler to me anyways.

The toppings

This hearty Keto Beef Chili is topped off with sour cream, cheddar cheese, red onion or scallions. I also like to offer cilantro and chopped jalapeños if someone wants more heat. I place all the topping out for my guests to pick and chose what they want to add.

Freezes like a DREAM

Not that there will be much chili left over, but this chili freezes and reheats like a dream. I store in quart sized containers in my freezer for use at a later time. There’s nothing better than pulling out some chili on a rainy weeknight for a super easy dinner. Every one loves Keto Beef Chili and it’s so heart warming too.
