Susan's Easy Three-Bean Chili

This delicious chili was prepared by Michelle P. for our Creative Cooking class. It has a few twists on traditional chili and was very tasty.


Susan's Easy Three-Bean Chili

1 lb. ground beef
1/2 yellow onion, chopped
1 green pepper, seeded and cut in fourths
3 T. chili powder (yep, that's right....3 T.!)
1 T. garlic salt
1 can Bush's chili beans
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
3 cans diced tomatoes (reg. soup size)

Brown the beef with onion. Drain fat, if desired. Add the chili powder and garlic salt. Add beans and tomatoes. Add the green pepper for flavor. You can take it out before serving, if desired. Stir and cook on medium heat until flavors are blended, about 20 minutes. This can also be put in a crock pot on low for the day. Garnish with shredded cheese, chopped onions or sour cream.

Serves a bunch!
