Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 lb ground chicken or 1 lb ground beef; 1 onion; 1 tablespoon minced garlic; 2 (15 ounce) cans black beans; 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce; 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes; 1 (10 3/4 ounce) can Campbell's cheddar cheese soup; ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce (see note in step 4!); 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon; 1 teaspoon ground cloves; 2 teaspoons ground cumin; 2 teaspoons chili powder

Servings: persons

1 lb ground chicken or 1 lb ground beef
1 onion
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 (15 ounce) cans black beans
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can Campbell's cheddar cheese soup
¼ cup Worcestershire sauce (see note in step 4!)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons chili powder

1
Brown the meat on the stove.
2
If you're using chicken/turkey, you'll probably want to put some oil in the pan first, but beef will make its own grease really quickly.
3
Dice the onion.
4
Here, you can either saute it with the meat or you can chuck it right into the pot raw.
5
You can also set aside a little to sprinkle on top of the chili raw, for serving, as you would with shredded cheese.
6
Put all the ingredients in your crock pot; stir.
7
IMPORTANT: I don't actually measure anything when I make this, I just upend the bottles.
8
So I'm totally guessing on the spice/W.
9
sauce measurements.
10
Please do adapt those to your own taste; I don't insist that I got them right at all.
11
Turn on the crock pot - low 6-8 hours, or high 3-4 hours, or until you really can't stand the anticipation anymore.
12
If you do it in a big pot on the stove, let it simmer at least a half hour, IMO.
13
Longer if you can; the longer it simmers the better it tastes, but sometimes you just can't wait, y'know?
