Even though this recipe is chock full of onions, it is one of my favorites from my childhood. Mom always made this on Halloween night so we would have something hot to eat before going out trick or treating. It became a tradition even though, through the years, our Octobers in Florida became warmer and warmer.
2 cans dark red kidney beans, drained
1 large onion chopped
1 green pepper chopped
1 lb lean ground beef
1 can diced tomatoes
1 1/2 tsp salt
Dash of pepper
Dash of cayenne pepper
Powdered cloves enough to equal 3 whole cloves
(you can use 3 whole cloves but they need to be removed before serving)
1 bay leaf
2 tbsp chili powder
2 tbsp oil
Brown onion, green pepper and meat in hot oil. Add tomatoes and seasonings. Simmer 2 hours, adding water if necessary. Add beans and heat thoroughly.
