Chili

Brown in the bottom of a big pot
2 lbs ground beef and
1 lb sausage (we use beef sausage)

Add:
1 onion, chopped (I have to use the quisenart so my hubby can't distinguish that there are actually onion pieces in there)

3-4 cups (or 2 cans) kidney beans, reserve the liquid
2 cans diced or sliced or crushed or whatever tomatoes, seasoned or not

3 tablespoons chili powder don't forget
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon oregano
1 tablespoon celery seed
Salt to taste if you didn't use canned beans

Mix in a sauce pan
1/3 cup corn meal with
remaining bean juice
and simmer 10 minutes, then add to your pot. Cook on medium low for a few hours :)

Top with grated cheese if you have it when serving. We made half a recipe of corn bread, crumbled that at the bottom of the bowl, and then spooned the chili on top.
