Cajun Two Step Chili

So as you can see, I'm trying to get a little bit crazier with the names of my recipes. I don't know how much you could really consider this a Cajun dish since I'm using Mexican hot sauces, but we'll ignore that for now. For those of you who don't know, the Cajun Two Step is a traditional Cajun dance similar to the country western two step, but none of this really has anything to do with the recipes except for the fact that this great tasting chili can be made in only . . . you guessed it, Two Steps!!

Ingredients:
- 7.5oz Hormel Chili with NO BEANS
- 7.5oz Tostitos Salsa con Queso (half of the jar)
- Frito Lays Scoops
- Black Pepper
- Cayenne Pepper
- Tony Chacheres
- Garlic Powder
- Onion Powder
- Chili Powder
- Any hot sauce you can get your hands on

Ignore the Kashi cereal, we won't be needing that this time

Optional/Substitute Ingredients:
- 7.5oz of any chili
- 7.5oz of velveeta or any other soft cheese
- Any chip really, goes best with corn chips
- Pretty much any seasoning you can imagine

Step 1: Pour out the chili and cheese into a bowl or tupperware dish. If you want, add a few slices of velveeta cheese as well. Season generously with whatever seasoning you wish to put in it. Stir it all up and make sure the seasonings aren't all bunched up in one area of the chili.

Doesn't the chili look great fresh out of the can?

Advice: If you decide to add lots of various peppers and hot sauces, remember that they will add up in the end! If you love the hot stuff, then go for it! But If your not a big fan of a nasty burning sensation in your throat, I would limit it to about a tablespoon combined for the various peppers, and about a tablespoon for the various hot sauces.

Chili seasoned and mixed

Step 2: Place the bowl in the microwave for about 1 and a half minutes on high. Take out and stir and cook it for another minute. Take out and let cool for two - three minutes.

That's it! Whip out the chips and enjoy.

Finished Chili

As I'm sure you can tell, this is a VERY flexible recipe. You can throw just about anything in a chili and it probably wouldn't taste that bad. I know some people love putting beans, tomatoes, cream cheese, etc, but I was never a fan of that. I always just stuck with the simple stuff. I find that the more you over complicate the dish the easier it is to mess it up.

Lastly, I realize I put "The Dorm Life" on all of my pictures. Sorry about that. It's 1:45 in the morning and I'm too tired to fix it. Hopefully this won't take away from your yummy chili.
