Wendy's Chili 
OP BasilPerfume

1 medium onion diced
1 green pepper diced 
2 celery stalks diced 
2 14 oz cans crushed tomatoes 
32 oz tomato sauce
1 can pinto beans
1 can kidney beans
1 can northern beans
1 pack McCormick mild chili seasoning
1 TBL chili powder
2 lbs ground chuck
Salt & pepper 

Saute onion, green pepper, & celery in a splash of oil until tender & set aside in a bowl. (I do everything in one big pot so less mess.)
Brown ground chuck & season w/ salt & pepper. 
Add all canned items, seasonings, & veggies in pot w/ meat. 
Simmer on low for 1 hour. 

Serve w/ favorite toppings. Mine are shredded cheddar & fritos. Also good: oyster crackers, hot sauce for those who like spice, extra diced raw onion. Whatever you like on your chili.
