Aunty Carolee's Chilli

I think what I love most about recipes is the story behind them. A few years ago I earned the Stampin’ Up! Incentive trip which was a Mediterranean cruise and my amazing aunty agreed to come and watch our kids so Michael and I could enjoy this trip together. While she was with the kids she made them chill, which they loved! So I got her recipe and over the years Michael has modified it a bit but it will always be known as Aunty Carolee’s chilli :)

Aunty Carolee’s Chilli:

1 pound of ground beef or turkey

1 onion finely chopped

3 cloves of garlic, pressed

2 cans of Chili Spiced diced tomatoes

1 can tomato paste

2 cans of Maple Baked beans

2 cans of beans in tomato sauce

1/2 cup brown sugar

chill powder to taste

worchestire to taste

Sautés the onion and garlic in a large pot, add in the ground beef or turkey to brown. Add all other ingredients and let simmer for approx 45 min. Stir occasionally.

Serve with shredded cheese and bread of any kind. Because we know bread is delicious.
