Source of Recipe


My late ex-father-in-law


List of Ingredients




1 # Ground Chuck or Turkey
Several Strips lean Bacon, snipped
1 # Can Kidney Beans, drained
1 # Can Tomatoes, broken up
1 C Chopped Celery
1 C Chopped Onion
2 Cloves Garlic, minced
1 # Can cut Green Beans, drained
Chili Powder to taste
Cumin to taste
Salt to taste
Toppings:
Sour Cream
Chopped Onion
Shredded Cheddar Cheese





Recipe



Brown Meats together in a skillet along with Onion, Garlic and Celery.
Add Tomatoes, Beans, Salt, Chili Powder and Cumin to taste.
Stir in Green Beans, cover and let simmer about 1/2 hour.
Serve steaming hot in bowls with toppings offered at the table.
Notes:
I prefer my Chili mild. Sometimes I add one minced Jalapeno pepper. I'm not much for spicy foods, so that's not a given here.
