My Favorite Chili!

It has been cold in Atlanta this week, so I decided to make chili!  My hubby likes it and several of our friends have tried it and seem to like it too. I hope you will try it!

MY FAVORITE CHILI

1 pound ground beef
1 pound ground turkey
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion (optional)
1 16-oz can of red kidney beans, drained
                (light or dark)
2 29-oz cans of tomato sauce
1 15-oz can of tomato sauce
2-3 teaspoons chili powder
½ tsp sweet basil, crushed
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper

In large skillet cook beef, turkey, garlic and onion (if using) until meat is brown. Drain fat.

In a large sauce pan (6 qt minimum) combine kidney beans,  2 29-oz cans tomato sauce, chili powder, sweet basil, salt and pepper.
Add meat mixture and mix well. Add the 15-oz can of tomato sauce.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat. Cover, simmer for 20 minutes.
The chili can be topped with shredded cheese and/or saltine crackers.
