This Three Bean Chili Mix Gift Jar is quick and easy to prepare. It makes a perfect homemade Christmas gift or present for any holiday.
Happy Sunday, I hope you are enjoying your weekend! I have been on a roll this past week with starting to prepare for the upcoming holiday season. Yesterday, I did some experimenting and put together a White Chocolate Cranberry Cookie Mix Jar. I have received similar gifts over the years and always really enjoy them. It turned out great, so today I decided to try creating one for a dinner recipe. Here is what I came up with: Three Bean Chili Mix Gift Jar.

Ingredients for Three Bean Chili Mix Gift Jar
This was so fun and easy to make! Here is what you will need:
- 32 ounce Jar with Lid
- Gift Tag
- Chili Powder
- Cumin
- Cayenne pepper
- Oregano
- Dried Minced Onion
- Garlic Powder
- Dried Parsley
- Dried Pinto Beans
- Dried Black Beans
- Dried Kidney Beans
How to Make the Three Bean Chili Mix Gift Jar
In a small bowl, combine the onion flakes and garlic powder and set aside. In a separate small bowl, combine the chili powder and cayenne (if desired). In a third small bowl, combine the parsley and oregano. Then, layer the ingredients in this order, taking care to firmly press the ingredients down before adding each layer.
- Kidney beans
- Onion flake and garlic powder mixture
- Pinto beans
- Black beans
- Chili powder and cayenne mixture
- Parsley and oregano mixture
- Cumin
IMPORTANT NOTE: There will likely be some space open between the cumin and the top of the jar that will not be visible because of the lid. If this is the case, you can simply add a few more tablespoons of beans or a scrunched up paper towel or napkin to reach the very top of the jar. This will keep all of the ingredients tightly packed in the jar and prevent shifting of the ingredients
After adding all the ingredients to the jar, seal and attach the gift tag.
