Once your meat is cooked drained the fat off. Then add in your tomatoes, garlic, jalapeno, chili powder, onion powder, cumin, cayenne, and salt and pepper.

How to Store Leftovers
If you don’t plan to eat it all right away, store in containers in the fridge for a reheat and enjoy meal. Or opt to place your leftovers in the freezer. If you do the freezer make sure to do an airtight container or freezer bag.
The chili will freeze for up to three months when stored properly. You can reheat from frozen or place in the fridge to thaw overnight for a slow reheat on the stove or microwave.
