Chili

This is my ole reliable chili recipe. Double it if you have more than 3-4 adults. The leftovers make for delicious chili dogs.

1/2 c. butter (I between 1/3-1/4c.)
1 lg chopped onion
1 chopped green pepper (I sometimes mix it up w/ red or yellow...)
1 tsp minced garlic
1 lb. ground beef, cooked and drained
5 T ketchup
3 T mustard
2 T chili powder**
2 cans tomatoes
1 can kidney beans
salt and pepper to taste
2 tsp sugar
dash of Worcestershire sauce

Saute onions, pepper & garlic in butter. Add other ingredients and simmer 30 minutes. Can serve over rice (to make it go further) with grated cheddar cheese sprinkled on top.

**I made this recipe while we were in the states and it didn't turn out near as yummy as it does here. I think part of the reason for that was the chili powder - the chili powder I use here seems to be a lot more concentrated giving lots more flavor.
