CHILI

I love cooking chili and I love finding new and exciting recipes. Here is a delicious, quick, and easy chili recipe that everyone will enjoy.

The first time I saw made this chili I used a few different ingredients. Over time I worked at it so that now, when people try it, they say, "Wow! This is great chili!"

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground pork
• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 1 cup purple sweet onion, chopped fine
• 1 cup green bell pepper, chopped fine
• 2 cans kidney beans
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 tablespoon ground cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes
• 8 cups beef broth
• 1 6-ounce can tomato paste

Instructions

Start off by browning the meat. While they are cooking, saute the onion and bell peppers. When the meat is browed, drain well and place in a large stock pot. Add the onions, peppers, and all other ingredients. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium. Allow to cook for at least two hours on medium heat, stirring often.

When you are ready to serve, place hot chili into a bowl where you have already placed a heaping tablespoon of grated cheddar cheese. Top each serving with a tablespoon of sour cream and some fresh chopped parsley. Serve with corn bread for an extra tasty treat.

Tip: I use McCormick chili powder, but you can use your favorite brand.
