- 1/2 bell pepper, diced
- 1 can chili ready beans
- 1 can black beans

- about 16 oz. tomato sauce
- 1/2 cup frozen corn

- salt/pepper/chili powder/red pepper flakes to taste
Directions:
- Brown ground beef in a large stock pot or dutch oven. Add onion, celery and carrot and saute until onion is slightly softened.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a simmer. Spices should be added per your desired heat level.
