Chili

Yummy!

A few weeks ago I made homemade chili. This is a recipe taken from a chili that Jon's mom makes, but I have made a few changes along the way. There is no actual written recipe just a list of ingredients that I combine to make this delightful dish.

* Kidney Beans
* Chili Beans
* Chili Mix (the hot kind)
* Diced Tomatoes (I prefer the kind with jalapenos in them)
* Stewed Tomatoes
* Tomato Paste
* Tomato Sauce
* Ketchup
* Brown Sugar (This cuts the acidity created by the tomatoes)
* Morning Star Crumbles (This is a vegetarian substitute for 1 lb browned ground beef)
* Cheese
* Sour Cream

I then combine all of these ingredients together, except the cheese and sour cream, in my crockpot. I can then let it simmmer for a couple of hours. We think it's great to serve with breadsticks.
