These tasty rolls can be made up ahead of time and cooked when you need them for a nice crisp exterior. They’re also a great way to use up leftover chili that you might have.

step 1
In a medium pot, heat Canola Oil (4 tsp) over medium heat. Add White Onion (1/2 cup) and Green Bell Pepper (1/2 cup) and sauté for 2 minutes.
step 2
Stir in Garlic (2 cloves), Chili Powder (10 tsp), Ground Cumin (1 tsp) and Chipotle Chili Powder (as needed), and continue to cook for 1 minute.
step 3
Add Lean Ground Beef (13 oz) and cook until beef is browned, stirring occasionally and breaking apart the chunks.

step 4
Stir in Beans in Tomato Sauce (1 can), Canned Black Beans (3/4 cup), Tomato Paste (4 Tbsp), and Kosher Salt (1 tsp) and allow to simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes to meld flavors. Chili should be relatively thick, but add a tablespoon or two of water if needed.
step 5
Place one of the 6-Inch Flour Tortillas (20) on a flat surface and spread with approximately 3 Tbsp of chili, leaving a 1-inch border around. Top with 1 tablespoon of the Cheddar Cheese (1 1/4 cups).

step 6
Moisten the top inch of the tortilla with water. Starting from the bottom, roll tortilla shell up a third of the way. Fold in sides 1 1-1/2 inch and continue to roll forward, enclosing all the chili in a tubular shape.

step 7
Using a 2-inch skillet or shallow pot, add enough Canola Oil (as needed) to fill the pot with 1 inch of oil. Heat over medium until hot.
step 8
Place about 6 chili rolls in hot oil with seam side down (don't overcrowd). Cook for about 2 minutes until golden. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
step 9
Remove with tongs to a paper towel lined plate to absorb excess oil. Cut in half diagonally and serve with guacamole, salsa, and sour cream if desired.
