KRISTI'S HOME STYLE CHILI

INGREDIENTS
2 LBS ground beef (may use ground turkey or 1/2 pork sausage and 1/2 ground beef)
One 29-ounce can tomato sauce
One 29-ounce can kidney beans with liquid (or black beans)
1 cup diced onion (1 medium onion)
1/2 cup diced green chile (about 2 chiles)
1/3 cup diced celery
1 cup diced bell pepper
3 medium tomatoes, chopped (may use fresh or canned)
2 tsp cumin powder
3 tbsp chili powder
1 1/2 tsp black pepper
2 tsp salt
2 cups water

For serving:
chopped fresh lettuce
chopped fresh tomatoes
Fry Bread (if making Navajo tacos)

DIRECTIONS
1. Brown the ground meat in a skillet over medium heat.  Drain off the fat.
2.  Using a fork, crumble the cooked meat into pea-sized pieces.
3.  In a large pot, combine the meat plus all of the remaining ingredients, and bring to a simmer over low heat.  Cook, stirring every 15 minutes, 2 to 3 hours.

When ready to serve, top with a pile of fresh chopped lettuce and tomatoes and serve.  This is also delicious with fry bread.

Makes about 12 servings
