Karame Inazuma (Lightning Spiral)

Tomorrow will be the first time in three years that we’ll be able to attend my mother’s annual Super Bowl Party. I’m really looking forward to it, though I confess it’s more for the food, the company and the commercials than for the game. I’m bringing a big pot of chili; made from a recipe given to me by another quilter:

Wendy’s Chili

1 pound ground beef chuck
1 15 oz. can diced tomatoes
2 15 oz. cans kidney beans, drained
1 8 oz. can tomato sauce
1 diced onion
4 oz. can diced chilies
1 celery rib, chopped
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon coarsely fresh ground black pepper
1 teaspoon crushed fresh garlic
1 cup water

Brown beef in Dutch oven, drain. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Simmer one hour, stirring occasionally.

    This is identical to the recipe I've been using for chili for years. I made a few changes on my own - I sometimes substitute fresh jalapenos for the chilis (which I assume are canned chilis), but when I do, I cut down the amount since jalapenos are much hotter. I also add a small can of tomato paste since I like my chili a little thicker. I also often substitute ground turkey for the ground beef.

      What a shame we didn't have leftover chili. It's even better the second day. We love it on top of brown rice, spaghetti, baked potatoes, hot dogs, or lettuce (which Heather calls Taco Salad).
