Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lbs ground beef (or veggie)
1 1/2 oz shortening
1 1/4 cup chopped onions
2 oz chili powder
2 oz paprika
1 bay leaf
1/4 teas. cinnamon
1 (3 oz) can tomato puree
1 (28 oz)can crushed tomatoes
4 cloves garlic, crushed and minced
salt to taste

Steps:

  • There were no preparation instructions, so I did the following: browned the grounds in olive oil (instead of the shortening) and set aside. Caramelized the onions in a bit more olive oil adding the garlic for a minute or so at the end. Mixed everything together and cooked it down until desired consistency. Adjusted seasonings to taste. Don't forget to remove the bay leaf before serving. Best served smothering a hot dog on a bun. Enjoy!!
