Obama Family Chili


In honor of our new President, I present to you the Obama Family Chili recipe:

Ingredients
1 large onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
several cloves of garlic, chopped
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 pound ground turkey or beef
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground basil
1 Tablespoon chili powder
3 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
several tomatoes, depending on size, chopped
1 can red kidney beans, undrained

Directions
Saute onions, green pepper, and garlic in oil until soft. Add ground meat and brown. Combine spices together into a mixture, then add to ground meat. Add red wine vinegar. Add tomatoes and let simmer, until tomatoes cook down. Add kidney beans and cook for a few more minutes.
Serve over white or brown rice. Garnish with grated cheddar cheese, onions, and sour cream.

It is said that it may be a little bland but I'm not a fan of spicy foods so I cannot WAIT to try it!!
