With Hot Cook, you can easily make beans and vegetables-filled, Wendy’s-style chili beans in just 40 minutes. This dish is nutritious, spicy, and also great for the diet. Now, I purchase canned kidney beans in bulk online so that I can make them any time!
It’s been a few years since our favorite hamburger shop in my neighborhood, Wendy’s, was closed.
I used to go to Wendy’s on weekends and often had the mushroom melt burger and chili beans.
Depending on the shop staff, the chili beans sometimes came with less filling or more soup, so I would ask for a little more filling when I ordered at the counter without hesitation.
I haven’t eaten my favorite chili beans for a long time now, but I could easily recreate Wendy’s style chili beans with the Hot Cook!
Chili powder and cumin powder, which are the key ingredients for the flavor, are nowadays readily available in the spice section of any supermarket, which is a big help.
As for canned kidney beans, it was a little difficult to find a supermarket that sells them at all times.
Now, I buy a can of kidney beans in bulk online.
Buying in bulk seems to be a lot, but it is not a problem because they are delicious, and I make chili beans several times a month.
