This recipe makes a huge vat of chili, so plan on eating some tonight and freezing some for later.
  • 2 bell peppers, chopped
  • 2 onions, chopped
  • 1-2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 lb. ground turkey, chicken or beef
  • 48 oz. crushed tomatoes
  • 2 14 oz. cans kidney beans
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 3 T. chili powder (adjust to your tastes)
  • 1/2 T. crushed red pepper (adjust to your tastes)

Heat 1 T olive oil in a skillet.  Add peppers, onions, and garlic and saute for a few minutes.

Add about 1 lb. turkey or beef and cook until brown.

Once the beef is fully cooked, drain the fat and put beef and vegetables in a large pot.  To the pot add: crushed tomatoes, kidney beans, bay leaves, chili powder, and crushed red pepper.  Let simmer on low for about 45 minutes.  I like my chili with some kind of starch, such as: tortilla chips, corn bread, noodles, or a baked potato.
