I was setting around deciding what to cook, using a 3-lbs roll of ground beef. So, I looked in the pantry and found canned tomatoes, chili beans, and pinto beans, tomato paste and yellow onions. Well, I think I will do CHILI... Looked in the Refrigerator and found, green bell pepper and Jalapeno peppers. Looked in the spice cabinet and found all the spices to make a good chili. Collected the spices, got out the peppers, and from the pantry, beans, tomatoes, onions and tomato paste. Let the CHILI BEGIN!!!!
