"When the weather starts getting cold I love to warm up with Frito Pie. All it is is Frito's corn chips topped with chili and cheese. I like my chili full of different flavors and textures so I created this recipe which has proven to be a hit with everyone who's tried it. Most of my measurements are guesses since I always just spice things to taste."

ingredients

453.59 g ground meat (I prefer turkey but you can use beef)
1 white onion
4-5 small jalapeno peppers
425.24 g can kidney beans
793.78 g can diced tomatoes

directions

Combine the diced tomatoes(undrained), kidney beans(undrained), and tomato paste in a large pot. Add the chili powder, cayenne, garlic salt, paprika, cinnamon, ginger, and black pepper to the mixture and cook covered on stove on medium heat.
Cut the tops off the jalapeños and quarter them longways into strips or "leaves" as my friends call them. Remove the seeds and innards.
Petal the onion by removing the ends and cutting it in half then cutting each half into quarters and breaking apart the layers.
Combine the ground meat, peppers and onions in a lightly oiled skillet and cook until the meat has browned.
Add the meat and vegetables to the pot of tomatoes and beans and cook covered an additional 5-10 minutes to let the flavors mingle.
Serve in a bowl over Frito's and top with grated cheddar.

This was a nice spicy chili, the heat will stay with you for a little while after you eat it. I used 4 jalapenos, 29 ounce can of beans, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the cayenne and NO cinnamon. Which turned out a mighty damn good bowl of chili. I adopted this chef for the *Spring PAC 2008* game
