Teri'S Chili

1. 1

   brown the meat; add the onions, garlic, red and green peppers, and celery--suate for about 10 mins till veggies are softening a bit and mixture is blended together.

2. 2

   Add to meat/onions, the tomato paste and all the spices at once and stir on relatively high heat to release the aromas. Saute for about 5 mins stirring constantly; if you need to add a little broth at this point to scrap up the bottom of the pan, do so.

3. 3

   Thereafter add the canned tomatoes, etc. Do not add the beans until toward the end, to avoid bean breakdown.
