Here is how you make Beefy 3 Bean Chili:

In a Dutch oven, on medium heat brown ground beef and onion together. Drain. Add chopped garlic cloves. When garlic is cooked through, add, tomatoes, sauce, and paste. Stir to mix thouroughly. Add all beans, drained. Stir. Add remaining ingredients (spices). Stir to incorporate. Reduce heat and allow to simmer for at least 20 minutes to meld the flavors. After 20 minutes, add more spices to taste if necessary. If you want the flavor to be even better, I recommend transferring chili to a slow cooker after adding the spices. It can be kept on low for up to 8 or 9 hours.You may also change the amount of spices to your liking. I often make the chili the night before and store it in the stone bowl of my slow cooker in the fridge, then drop it in the heating part the next morning before going to work. Makes roughly 15 1 cup servings and freezes very well.Number of Servings: 15Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user WHEBER.
