Chili

Here is the best chili recipe I have ever came across. It may have a couple different ingredients but don't dare change a thing.  It has a little spice but the little ones can still eat it. To add some extra heat increase the amount of chili powder or even add some diced jalapeños for some extra heat. Enjoy!

Chili

1/2 cup green onions ~ chopped

1 green bell pepper ~ diced

2 celery stalks ~ diced

1 small onion ~ diced

2 cloves garlic ~ minced

4 Tbsp butter

1 pkg chili seasoning

1 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes

1 14.5 oz can diced roasted garlic tomatoes

1 10 oz can Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies
