Chilli Con Carni

The Pennsylvania Dutch version of chilli is called 'Chilli Con Carni'. It's not what most people would think of when they think of chilli, but it tastes great and it's very simple. It's especially good in cold weather. A one-pot meal that will take just a few minutes to prepare, and is easy to double (or half) if you need to. Again I've listed our 'short-cuts'.

• 1 lb. homemade noodles (or 1 bag (12-16 oz.) wide egg noodles)
• 1 can baked beans
• about 1 cup of spaghetti sauce, more or less (or 1 small jar)
• 1 lb. hamburger
• 1 onion, chopped

Brown hamburger and onion. Cook and drain egg noodles. Combine everything. You may need additional sauce if you have leftovers and warm them up later. Chilli should be thick, not soupy. Goes great with crusty bread.
