Chili Con Carne<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

1 lb 93% lean ground beef (or <\/em>ground turkey breast or<\/em> ground chicken breast)
\n14 oz dark red kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
\n28 ounces diced tomatoes (or 2 14 oz cans of petite diced Italian tomatoes)
\n16 oz water
\n1 small can tomato paste
\n1 large onion, minced
\n4 cloves garlic, minced
\n4 tbsp chili powder
\n1\/8 – 1\/4 tsp cayenne pepper (depending on your tolerance for heat)
\n4 ounces of grated cheese (Reduced fat Cheddar or Mozzarella are popular)<\/p>\n

In a large soup pot over medium heat, brown meat of choice along with onion, garlic and chili powder.<\/p>\n

Spoon off any excess fat (there should only be a minimal amount of this), and then add the rest of the ingredients except cheese. Cover and bring up to a simmer, leaving the lid slightly askew so that the pot does not boil over. Allow to simmer for 30-60 minutes. (N.B. The chili flavour actually is better if you can make this they day before and refrigerate over night.)<\/em><\/p>\n

This recipe may be modified with the addition of other vegetables as desired; diced carrots are nice, as are sliced, saut\u00c3\u00a9ed mushrooms, diced green peppers, or even jalape\u00c3\u00b1os.<\/p>\n

Serve with crackers, over mashed potatoes, in a hollowed out bread bowl, or as a filling to baked potatoes. Top with 1 oz grated cheese.<\/p>\n

Serves 4.<\/p>\n
