chili to die for


CHILI TO DIE FOR

Brown 1 lb. of ground turkey and 1 lb. of ground beef.  Add 1-½ cups of chopped white onion and one chopped green pepper. (I sometimes cheat and use the mirepoix from Trader Joe’s and add a little more onion.)  Sauté mixture for a couple of minutes.

Drain and add the following:
One can of kidney beans
One can of cannelloni beans (white kidney)
One can of garbanzo beans
One can of black beans

2 cans of fire roasted tomatoes with chopped chilies
1 large can of chopped tomatoes
2 cans of tomato sauce
2 packets of TJ’s taco seasoning or ¼ c of favorite chili powder
2 tsp. of ground cumin
1 cup of red wine

Cook all day in a crockpot on low or simmer on the stove for at least 4 hours.

Serve with shredded cheese & oyster crackers (or better yet---Fritos)!

Excellent the day of and even better the next day!!
