Some call it a soup. I call it a meal – perfect for those days when you need to warm up from the inside out. It will quickly get you firing on all cylinders. They’ll keep coming back for more.
I always make a batch of this chili and then preserve it in pint jars so it is ready-made meal
Ingredients
1 lb ground beef

1/8 tsp paprika
2 tsp black pepper

In large skillet, cook and stir meat, onions and green pepper until meat is brown and onion is tender. Drain off fat. Stir in tomatoes (be sure to cut in small pieces); add remaining ingredients except kidney beans.
Heat to boiling, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 1 – 1 ½ hours, stirring occasionally to make sure it doesn’t burn. Add Kidney beans (be sure to drain and rinse first) and heat through. Makes about 10 to 12 cups
