Campground Chili

Make friends with those camping around you. Invite them for chili. Double the recipe. Serve with salad.

1 can (19 ounces) Campbell's Chunky Sirloin Burger Soup
1 can (15 1/2 ounces) kidney beans, drained
2 teaspoons chili powder
Cooked rice

In saucepan, combine soup, beans, chili. Simmer a few minutes to blend flavors; stir occasionally. Serve over rice. Makes about 3 1/2 cups.

The only good thing about this recipe was it was easy. Big Chubb said that we can never have this again. I agreed. There was absolutely no flavor at all!! And, it isn't even close to chili. It is just an upscale vegetable canned soup with kidney beans added.

I don't know who would ever think of cooking rice when you camp. That is not my idea of easy camping food. Don't invite your camping neighbors. They won't want to be your friends after eating this.

  1. Are you really going to make the rest of the recipes in the booklet?

  2. I had the same question. Maybe the recipe would be good if you actually made it while camping.

  3. Chunky soups were on sale a couple weeks ago, so I grabbed two. I would never buy them for any other reason, so unless they are on a really good sale, I probably won't make any more of the remaining 20 or so, though Ben is insistent that one of them with a picture will be delicious. No thanks, Ben.

  4. Yeah, maybe while camping you will want real food so badly that even this will taste good.
