    Chili

    1. Brown and drain the ground beef, divide into two large pots, 1.5-2 gallon pots.
    2. Add to each one can of diced tomatoes, one can of whole tomatoes, with their liquid.
    3. Reserving about a half green pepper and a half onion, and two cloves of garlic for the vegetarian mix, divide the remainder of the green peppers, onions and garlic between the two pots of chili. One pot will be spicy, one mild. These pots should cook low for at least an hour, better 90 minutes. Add 1/2 tsp salt. Stir and bother the simmering soup, especially breaking the whole tomatoes into pieces.
    4. When you have 1 hour left to cook, add to the spicy pot, 1 diced habanero pepper, 1 tbsp pepper flakes, 1.5 tbsp cumin, 1 tbsp paprika, 1tsp black pepper.
    5. To the mild chili pot, add 1 tbsp pepper flakes, 1.5 tbsp cumin, 1 tbsp paprika, 1 tsp black pepper.

    Beans

    1. drain and wash your 4 cans of kidney beans. place them in a large pot, barely cover with water.
    2. bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. cook 15-25 minutes.

     

    vegetarian mix

    1. in medium pot, cook eggplant and green pepper on low, in a little oil, until a little tender
    2. add onions, garlic, 1 diced habanero pepper and spices (1 tbsp cumin, some red pepper flakes, some black pepper)
    3. continue to cook on low until the onions begin to be cooked, then
    4. add the drained, washed garbonzo beans, cook another 5-10 minutes

    rice

    • prepare according to the directions on the bag of rice

    Serve with rice and add-ons, my favorites, grated cheese, sour cream, raw chopped onions, corn chips, crackers. Let the beans stay separate and add beans directly to the bowls of those who want beans in their chili.
