Val's Chili

This recipe came from my sister, Valori.

4 sliced bacon, cooked and crumbled
1-2 lbs hamburger, cooked
2-3 smoked sausages, diced (the ones near the hot dogs)
1 c celery, diced
1 c green pepper, diced
1 c onion, diced
1 can dark red kidney beans
1 can chilli beans
1 small can tomato sauce
(or 1 can tomatoes, pureed in blender)
1 T chilli pepper
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
Enough water to make soupy

I do cook up the celery, pepper, and onion until the onions is clear, before adding to soup

Also, this is the basic recipe, to make more I use more meat and veggies, but not more beans. Also upped the spices to almost doubled. And did both the tomato sauce and the canned tomatoes.

Enjoy, and have fun changing it to what you like.
