**C Chili**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 pound ground beef
– 1 onion, diced
– 1 green bell pepper, diced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
– 1 can (15 oz) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
– 1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
– 2 tablespoons chili powder
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Optional toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped green onions
**Instructions:**
1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat from the pot.
2. Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic to the pot with the cooked beef. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.

4. Bring the chili to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let the chili cook for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
5. Taste the chili and adjust the seasoning as needed with more salt, pepper, or chili powder.
6. Serve the C Chili hot in bowls, topped with your favorite garnishes such as shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and chopped green onions.
