Low-fat chili

Here's a great chili recipe. I may have posted this before, but for those of you just joining us, it'll be new.

Ingredients:
12 oz. ground beef (Three-fourths pound)
Half-cup chopped green pepper
One cup onion
1 tsp. minced garlic
2-3 tsp. chili powder
One-fourth tsp. black pepper
1 can (15 oz.) dark red kidney beans (rinsed and drained)
1 can (14.5 oz.) tomatoes (cut up)
1 8 oz. can tomato sauce
One-half tsp. dried basil, crushed

In large saucepan, cook ground beef, onion, green pepper and garlic--until meat is brown and onion is tender. Drain. Replace in pot and stir in kidney beans, tomatoes and sauce. Then added spices. Bring to boiling then simmer for 20 min. Makes 4 servings.
