Cincinnati Chili

Sorry its been so long since I posted a recipe. We were on vacation and then none of the new recipes I tried since have been worth sharing. So here's one of my old stand-by's.

1 lb ground beef
1 cup chopped green pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
3 TB chili powder
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cans tomato soup
1 15 oz can kidney beans, undrained
1 TB vinegar
cooked spaghetti
shredded cheddar

1. In a 4 qt sauceapan over med-high heat cook beef, green peppers, onions, chili powder and garlic until beef is browned and vegetables are tender. Spoon off the fat.
2. add soup, undrained kidney beans, & vinegar. Heat to boiling, reduce heat to low & simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Serve over cooked spaghetti and sprinkle shredded cheddar on top.

Not being big fans of spaghetti or chili, Justin was not so much excited about this the first time I made it, but after trying it he really liked it and it got the approval to be made again. The recipe comes from a roommate I had in college.
