My Chili
Crystal Miller

3 cups dry small red beans
10 cups water
1 T. salt
1 lb. Hamburger, cooked and drained
1 onion, chopped and cooked with hamburger, opt.
2 to 4 T. chili powder
1 can Rotel tomatoes

Combine beans, water and salt.  Bring to a boil and simmer for 3 hours checking on water levels periodically.  When beans are finished add cooked hamburger and chili powder adjusting seasonings according to taste and Rotel tomatoes.  Chili freezes beautifully.  It is a great meal to have in the freezer.  You can easily double or triple this recipe (make sure you have a big enough pot, as beans do expand during cooking).
