Recipe: Mom's Chili

I just love my mother's chili. She is 2500 miles away, so here chili would be rather hard to eat for a family of 4 for dinner. She emailed me the recipe and I went to work on it.

Here is how it went

1 bell pepper
1 onion
1 package of chili mix (i used McCormick)
2 cans of kidney beans
1 pound of hamburger
2 cans of tomato sauce
chili powder to your taste
cumin (she puts this, I didn't)

Salt and pepper to taste on meat

Brown the meat. When it is half way through the browning process add onion and bell pepper. Finish browning. Add tomato sauce and chili mix. Cook through. Stir.

If you chose to add water do do. Put in beans and let cook.

My mother cooks hers for a long time. Mine was ready in 45 minutes! Very good and tastes just like moms!!!
