2 lbs. Lean beef, course chili ground
2 lg. White onions, finely chopped
1 med. Green bell pepper, finely chopped
4 Cloves of garlic, pressed or minced

1 can (8 oz.) tomato paste
1 T. Hungarian paprika (sweet or hot)
1 T. Salt
1 T. Leaf oregano

Recipe
In a large (5-6 quart) heavy pot, heat the oil over a medium-high heat. Add the beef, onions, bell pepper and garlic. Let this mixture saute, stirring often for about 5 minutes, then stir in the chili powder. When the onions and bell pepper are tender, stir in the tomato sauce, tomatoes and tomato paste. Stir in a cup of water, then stir in all of the remaining ingredients. Reduce the heat to just a simmer and continue to cook about 1� hours, stirring occasionally. Serves 6.
If desired several dashes of hot sauce can be added, but only if more �heat� is needed. Now, there is the question of beans in your chili. If you�re a true chili afficionado, there will be no beans, but if you want beans, put �em in! Just add as a final ingredient. Either way you will...
