Ingredients:

– 1 pound ground beef

– 1 medium onion, chopped

– 2 cloves garlic, minced

– 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes

– 1 can (15 ounces) kidney beans, drained and rinsed

– 1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste

– 1 tablespoon chili powder

– 1 teaspoon cumin

– 1 teaspoon paprika

– Salt and pepper to taste

– Shredded cheddar cheese (for topping)

– Sliced green onions (for garnish)

– Bread bowls (one per serving)

Instructions:

1. Start by heating a large pot over the campfire or stovetop. Add the ground beef and cook until browned. Drain any excess grease.

2. Add the chopped onions and minced garlic to the pot. Cook until the onions become translucent and the garlic becomes fragrant.

3. Add the diced tomatoes, kidney beans, tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

4. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the chili simmer for about 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

5. While the chili is simmering, take your bread bowls and carve out the center, creating a hollow space for the chili. You can save the bread you remove to serve alongside the chili as a tasty side dish.

6. Once the chili is ready, ladle it into the bread bowls, filling them to the brim. Top each bowl with a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese.

7. Place the filled bread bowls near the campfire, on a grill, or in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted and started to bubble.

8. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately. Be cautious, as the bread bowls will be hot.
