Chili

I find it funny that I put our cornbread recipe on here, but not our regular chili recipe.
I have found chili to be very forgiving of adaptations. To this basic recipe I have added so many different things over the years. Ground beef instead of turkey, black beans instead of red, adding bacon...
We probably have this about once a week during the fall.

1 28oz can diced tomatoes
1 can drained pinto beans
1 can drained red kidney beans
1 lb ground turkey
1 diced onion
1 diced green pepper
2 stalks of celery, diced
3 minced garlic cloves
2-4T chili powder
1t pepper
1t cumin
1t salt

Brown the turkey meat. Pour rest of ingredients into crock pot. Stir, cover and cook on low for 10-12 hours or high for 5-6 hours. Great with cheese and sour cream on cornbread.
