    This is my 'Go to' chili recipe. We were at our cabin near Angel Fire, New Mexico and I wanted to make a pot of chili. Not having a recipe with me up there, I made up this one using what I had on hand, fortunately I had all I needed. The name I gave the recipe uses the name of our cabin and lot in the mountains.

    Chili ala High Hopes
    Cook together 2 lb ground beef
    1/2 large onion, chopped
    Stir occasionally while cooking.
    When no longer pink, remove from heat and drain grease if needed.
    Add 3 TBs chili powder
    1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
    Dash garlic powder
    Small pinch salt and pepper
    Stir and cook 2 minutes over med. heat.
    Now stir in one 8 oz can tomato sauce and 1 can of water
    Optional: add a can of pinto beans
    Heat to a slow boil. Cover the pot and simmer about 30 minutes.

    This month's Family Circle magazine (pink cover with cookies on front) has a fabulous chili recipe.

    I made it last weekend and we ate it for two days...........yummy!

    Instead of cooking on the stove top in my dutch oven, I let it simmer in the oven for an 1 1/2 hours. I added canned pinto beans as well as an extra can of tomato sauce.

    Lone Star Chili

    6 ounces thick-cut bacon, diced
    1 1/2 pounds beef chuck for stew
    1/3 cup chili powder
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
    1 large yellow onion, diced
    1 green pepper, cored and diced
    2 sweet red peppers, cored and diced
    3 cloves garlic, chopped
    1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes (plus 1 14 oz. can tomato sauce)
    (I added 2 14 oz. cans of pinto beans)
    Sour cream
    Sliced scallions

    Heat a large heavy stockpot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add bacon and cook, stirring frequently, 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon. Increase heat to high and add beef to pot. Brown 3 minutes. Turn over and brown 2 minutes more. Reduce heat to medium and stir in chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper. Cook 1 minute. Return bacon to pot along with onion, peppers and garlic. Cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add crushed tomatoes and 2 cups water. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to medium-low. Partially cover pot and continue to cook for another 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally and adjusting temperature as needed so chili doesn't burn. Uncover and stir. Serve topped with sour cream and scallions.

    Sorry, I cannot help -- I have not used a recipe for Chili since I was 13, unless, I decide to try new recipe for Cincinnati Chili.

    A Can of This and That Chili

    1# ground chuck, brown with diced onion and drain grease.
    salt and pepper to taste
    Add,Williams chili seasoning to taste (I never use the whole package)
    1 can Rotell diced tomatoes/green chiles
    1 large can diced or crushed tomatoes
    1 large can Bush's Best (mild) Chili Beans (to stretch recipe add another small can of beans)

    Simmer all together for 30 minutes or so and serve.
    The interesting thing about this recipe is you can add more of any of the ingredients to stretch the recipe a little more.
