Day Before Chili Recipe

By Amanda Campbell

Just made this and it tastes great. I changed it up a little but you can do that with anything. I added carrots and corn yum!!! I also added green chilies’ instead of bell peppers because my mom can't eat bell peppers. This is a great chili.

1 1/2 pounds ground beef
• 1 Tablespoon olive oil
• 2 medium onions, chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 3/4 Teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
• 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
• 7 Tablespoons chili powder
