Madame’s (My Mom’s) Delicious Chili

Don’t ask me why we call my mom “Madame”.  I don’t even remember.

Ok, onto the recipe – isn’t that why we’re here?

TIME: Prep about 5 minutes (Literally.  You throw it in the pot). Cook-time about 40 minutes.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 lb ground turkey or beef
• 1 onion
• 1 green pepper
• 1 can stewed tomatoes
• 1 can corn
• 1 tsp chili
• 1-2 bay leaves
• salt and pepper (add at the end, to taste)

To cook:

1. Throw it all in the pot.  That is all.  (Some fancier recipes call for browning the beef before you put it in the chili.  Save yourself another pan to clean!)
2. Bring to a boil, then put on lid and simmer for 30-45 minutes.
