Morning Again,

Something a little different. Currently I am struggling to be able to cook properly due to a lack of kitchen. I am having a new kitchen and it has already been over 4 weeks and now I'm getting annoyed as I can't cook the dishes I love. I really fancied making chilli nachos and I had nowhere to make my own chilli so I ended up buying a can. This is something I thought I would never do, but sometimes needs must and I just had to.

Stagg Chilli Classic Chilli Con Carne

"Shaped minced beef with kidney and pinto beans in a spicy chili sauce. A legendary taste experience."

So I opened the can (thankfully it had a ring pull as I have no can opener) and I peered inside. The chilli looked dark brown, very dark brown and O could see the chilli beans. I must admit my first thought was it looked a bit dodgy if you catch my drift. It did smell nice though, I give it that. I emptied the can into my saucepan and put it on my portable single hob. As it started to cook, I realised there wasn't much at all. Not like the quantities I make. I spooned it over my tortilla chips and topped it off with some Tex Mex dip. Then I dug in. There wasn't enough meat in this at all. I can only remember a couple of pieces and they looked a bit like dog food. The sauce was nice and it had almost a sweet, smoky bbq taste. Very different to my homemade chilli. I couldn't tell if this had heat in it or not because I had nacho cheese and that's a tiny bit hot. Overall the taste was ok and I would consider having this again if I was desperate for chilli and I couldn't be bothered to make mine, but nothing beats my chilli!

I never thought I would resort to buying chilli con carne. Top improve this I would say get a decent amount of quality meat in there as the meat really reminded me of dog food pellets, 'not that Ive eaten dog food pellets before!'. I would recommend buying two cans for two people as there really wasn't enough to share. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting, but I wouldn't say it's ground breaking.
