Servings: persons

2 cups onions, finely chopped
4 teaspoons garlic, minced
4 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 lbs extra lean ground beef
2 (28 ounce) cans chopped tomatoes
1 (5 1/2 ounce) can tomato juice (optional)
3 (15 1/2 ounce) cans kidney beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups green peppers, diced
2 cups carrots, sliced

2 cups frozen corn, thawed
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon cocoa powder (unsweetened)
3 tablespoons mild chili powder
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons oregano
1 teaspoon coriander
1 teaspoon salt

1
In a large, deep, Dutch oven, saute the onion and garlic in the oil until softened.
2
Add the meat, and brown, stirring to break up pieces. Drain any excess fat.
3
Add the tomatoes and their liquid and all of the seasonings. Heat until bubbly, reduce the heat, cover and simmer about 30 minutes.
4
Add the beans and vegetables, simmer covered about 20 minutes longer.
5
*if it's not soupy enough, add 1 or more small cans of tomato juice.
6
*Can put it in a large crock pot after the meat is browned. Cook as long as you need it to, I've cooked it on low for 8 hours, the carrots were a little soft, but fine. You could probably cook it on High for 2 hours or so and it would be fine as well.

*I have used venison in this recipe with good results.
