4 28-oz cans crushed tomatoes

Chop carrots, zucchini and onions in the food processor.
Heat 1/4 cup vegetable oil in a 6 quart pot. Add vegetables. Cook over
medium-high heat 15-20 minutes, stirring 3 or 4 times until almost
tender.
Put 3 lbs. ground turkey (or beef) and 1 tbsp. minced garlic in a 8
quart pot. Cook, breaking up meat, until it is no longer pink. Stir in
the vegetables, four 28-oz. cans crushed tomatoes in puree (drain some
of the juice or it might be too watery), a 15 oz. can of tomato sauce
and 2 tsp. salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer
15 to 20 minutes for flavors to develop.

for spaghetti sauce or freeze some for future chili.
(or you can decrease proportions and make less to begin with).
With 7 cups of the meat sauce, add 38-oz. of kidney beans and 2 or more
tablespoons chili powder. Top with shredded cheese and onions.
Refrigerate up to 5 days. Freeze up to 4 months.
