1 lb. ground beef
2 large onions, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 - 14 1/2 oz. cans of diced tomatoes
2 - 15 oz. cans of kidney beans, drained (or 2 cups dried kidney beans: soaked, cooked, and drained)
3 - 8 oz. cans of tomato sauce
4 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. dried basil
1 tsp. salt
In a large saucepan, cook the ground beef, onion, and garlic. Drain the fat. Stir in remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
Makes 8 servings or about 10 cups
(This is a recipe from Better Homes and Gardens that I have adapted. If you like your chili spicy, you can add additional chili powder and some ground pepper. This is a very family friendly recipe though. My 4 year old son says to me when I make this, "I don't like your chili, Mom--I love it!"
