I don't really have a recipe, it's just the way I've been putting my chili together for years.
1 lb. ground beef, browned and drained
1 large chopped onion
1 16 oz. can stewed tomatoes
1 8 oz can tomato sauce
1 16 oz. can Bush's chili beans, mild sauce
Garlic powder to taste
Chili powder to taste
Cumin powder to taste
Tomato juice if needed
Brown the meat and onion together, drain. Add the canned ingredients, crush the tomatoes. Sprinkle spices over the top, stir in. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and let simmer, uncovered for an hour, it will cook down. If it gets too thick, add a little tomato juice. Serves 4 approx. It's easily doubled And all ingredients are usually on hand.
Been making it like this since I was married, 46 years now. Even taken it to people in need of a meal when being ill or going through bereavment. They all loved it. Was the way my mother taught me to make it. Funny thing though, last week when I made it, I accidently grabbed the ground cloves instead of the cumin. I thought I had ruined it, but didn't put too much in when I caught what I'd done. Still put the cumin in too. It tasted great.
