- 1 lb. ground beef or turkey
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 (28 oz.) can tomatoes, whole or chopped
- 1 small can chopped green chiles
- 3 cans of beans (can be black, Kidney, pinto, Great Northern, Canellini, or a combination)
- 1 (14.5 oz.) can beef broth
- 1/4 cup Chili Powder
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- Kosher salt to taste
In a large saucepan or pot, brown meat with onion, garlic, and pepper; drain fat. (NOTE: I often brown and freeze meat ahead of time. If using pre-cooked meat, start the veggies first and then add the meat to warm it up and mix the flavors.)
Add remaining ingredients and simmer 30 minutes to 3 hours. Freezes very well.
