After trying several Wendy's chili recipe clones and adjusting them to my tastes, I've concocted what I think is the best. Serve it topped with finely diced white onions and/or shredded cheese. Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • olive oil: 2 Tbsp
  • ground beef: 2 pound
  • stalks celery: 2 piece (chopped)
  • onion: 1 piece (chopped)
  • green bell pepper: 1 piece (chopped)
  • stewed tomatoes: 3 cans (14 ounce cans)
  • tomato sauce: 1 can (14 ounce can)
  • tomatoes with green Chilis (such as RO*TEL): 1 can (10 ounce can, diced)
  • water: 1 cup
  • chili seasoning (such as McCormick® Mild Chili Seasoning Mix): 2 packages (1.25 ounce packages)
  • kidney beans, undrained: 1 can (14 ounce can)
