I love it when a plan comes together…
Being a (mild spice) chili fan I am often looking for good recipes and easy ways to make it. Then I found some magic on a Walmart shelf… Bush’s Mild Chili Beans mysteriously appeared and answered a lot of my problems of finding good canned chili beans. A chili that I can pop into the Instant Pot and have my chili fix whenever my heart desires is just a can away! Seeing as the weather is turning crisper I tend to gear toward comfort food, so this recipe is a perfect option. Best of all it’s vegetarian AND healthy – the protein is in the beans and is absolutely amazing…

- 2 tsp olive oil
