Creole-Style Chili

Posted on October 19th, 2008, by skurtz

This is supposedly Brett Favre’s recipe. I don’t care, its still good and easy! To make it last a little longer, sometimes I add a pound of cooked macaroni to the final product.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 2 medium green and/or red sweet peppers, chopped (1 1/2 cups)
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1/2 cup sliced green onion
