Kristen's Chili

1 Tablespoon canola oil
1 onion (chopped)
1 green bell pepper (chopped)
2 cloves garlic (diced)
1 lb ground beef or turkey
1 can stewed tomatoes
1 can tomato sauce
1 Tablespoon Chili powder or more to taste
dash of cayenne pepper or more depending on how hot you want your chili
salt
pepper

Saute onion and pepper in canola oil until softened.  add garlic and saute for about 30 seconds.  Add meat and brown.  While browning meat add chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper.  Once meat is browned add stewed tomatoes and break up tomatoes with spoon, add tomato sauce.  Let chili come to a simmer and simmer for 20 minutes.  Taste and add additional seasonings if needed.  The flavor will intensify the longer it sits and usually tastes better the next day.

Serve over rice and fritos.  Add what ever toppings you desire.

From frozen just heat to desired temperature and serve over rice.
