Chili

This is our family's very favorite chili! I usually triple or quadruple this recipe so that we have enough for leftovers for another day or two.

1 pound ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 Tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon red pepper sauce
16 ounce can whole tomatoes, undrained
16 ounce can kidney beans

Brown beef, onion and garlic. Stir in remaining ingredients except for the beans. Heat to boiling  and then reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 1 hour. Stir in beans and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes or until heated through.

Serve with all your favorite fixings: cheese, Frito's, chopped onion, sour cream, oyster crackers... and enjoy!
