Wendy's Chili

My husband declared this to be "the best bowl of chili I've ever had".  So that must be a good thing?



Wendy's Chili 
(This makes a huge batch...I halved it and still had LOTS of leftovers.  It freezes well too.)

From http://www.mamalovesfood.com/2010/11/wendys-chili-well-not-really-but-sort.html


  • 4.5 pounds ground beef, browned and drained
  • 2 large yellow (sweet) onions, chopped
  • 7 large green bell peppers, chopped
