chili

What's better on a cool fall night than a big bowl of chili?  It's even better if you can dump everything into the crock pot before you go to work and come home to a finished dinner.
Here's what you need:
1# ground beef
1 onion and green pepper diced
2 15oz cans each of diced tomatoes, tomato sauce and chili beans
2 cloves garlic minced
2-3 tst chili powder, oregano and cumin
salt and pepper to taste.
 Put your meat in the crock pot and break it into chunks , dump everything else on top of it.  Turn the pot on low, cover with lid and go away.  Ready in about 6 hours.  You can also do this on the stove top in about an hour, but I think it tastes better when it cooks all day.

best chili beans hands down
  This freezes well.  Just let it cool down a little and ladle into freezer bags.  then you have dinner for at least 2 more nights.

just dump everything together and leave



what more could you ask for unless you want a little cheddar cheese or sour cream?
