Chili

We love this in the winter!

1 lb dry pinto beans
1lb ground beef
2 T chili powder
1/2 t cumin
1 large onion
1 or 2 bell peppers (green, red, orange, whatever)
2 cans diced tomatoes
1 can tomato sauce
1/2 bag good frozen corn (I like trader joes brand)

Toppings: shredded cheese, fritos (our favorite), mustard, sour cream, green onion, or whatever else you can think of!

Soak beans overnight or boil for 5 minutes then allow to sit covered for one hour. Cook beans in chicken broth in pressure cooker for 25 minutes. Drain and set aside.

In large dutch oven or saucepan, saute diced onion and pepper. Add beef when veggies are starting to soften. Brown and break up. Add chili powder and cumin. Once beef is browned, add tomatoes and beans (adjust amounts until you like the way it looks). Add corn, simmer for 1/2 hour, serve with toppings:)
