   1       lg           Onion, chopped
  16       oz           Can of tomato sauce
  26       oz           Can tomato puree
   6       tb           Powdered chili pepper
                        -(not chili powder)
   3       cl           Garlic, minced
   1       tb           Sweet paprika
   1       tb           Mexican oregano
     1/2   ts           Cumin
     1/4   ts           Red pepper
     1/2   ts           Salt
   1       pt           Sour cream

  30       oz           Light red kidney beans

  Break up and fry beef, drain off any grease. Place the meat in a 4-quart
  pot with tomato sauce. Fry the chopped onions until soft, but not brown,
  and add to pot. Coarsely chop the tomatoes and add them to pot, together
  with tomato puree, the garlic and spices. Bring the mixture to a boil, and
  then simmer it, uncovered, uncovered, for at least 30 minutes, adding water
  if necessary. Add beans, (if you must) and simmer for additional 15
  minutes. Serve with a spoonful of sour cream on top.
