Chili



Ingredients:
2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 small red onion, chopped
2 lb. ground beef
1/4 cup chili powder
3 Tbsp. cumin
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. black pepper
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
3 roma tomatoes, diced
1 or 2 8 oz. cans tomato sauce
1 15 ounce can beans (I use drained black soy beans or undrained chili beans.)
cilantro, shredded cheese, sour cream

Directions:
Cook the peppers, onion and garlic in oil until slightly tender. Add ground beef and spices and cook until meat is completely browned. Drain excess fat. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce and beans and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Garnish with cilantro, cheese and sour cream.
