5 lb Ground beef -- lean
5 lg Onion -- chopped
40 oz Tomato puree -- can
15 oz Tomato paste -- can
30 oz Kidney beans -- rinsed & drain
2 1/2 qt Water -- or more
10 tb Chili powder

SAUTE THE ONION in a non-stick pan, or in a little
butter until tender. If you want the chili hot, saute
with the chili powder. When the onions are limp, add
the beef, and brown, breaking up with a spoon. (Drain
if you like). Add puree, paste, chili powder if you
didn't brown it, beans, and 16 oz. water. And salt &
pepper if you like it. Cover and simmer over low heat
for 2 hrs., stirring occasionally.
Add more water if it gets too thick. Good served over
mashed potatoes. You may need more water, depending on
the cooking temperature. And you can adjust the amount
of chili powder to taste. And you can add spices of
your choice. This is an easy dish for camping.
