Smoked Sausage Chili

• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• 1/2 cup finely chopped white onion
• 1/2 lb smoked sausage, cut into 1/4 inch slices, then cut into quarters
• 1/4 cup chili seasoning mix (I used Chili Seasoning Mix)
• 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, undrained
• 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can peeled chili ready diced tomatoes, undrained
• 1/3 cup dry elbow macaroni
• 1/2 - 3/4 cup water

1. In a dutch oven over medium heat, add oil heat until hot but not smoking.
2. Add chopped onion and smoked sausage; cook until onion is soft and sausage is browned.
3. Then add chili seasoning, beans, and tomatoes.
4. Stir until seasonings are blended well.
5. And macaroni and water; turn heat down and simmer for 20 minutes or until pasta is al dente (you might need more water to get the pasta to your desired doneness).
6. Serve and enjoy :)!
