1 lb. ground beef

2 cans kidney beans, un-drained

2 cans diced tomatoes in juice

2 cans Mexican chili beans (pinto)

1 can corn

1 6oz can diced green peppers

1 recipe chili seasoning mix    

Seasoning Mix:

1 tbsp flour

2 tbsp dried minced onion

1 tbsp chili powder

DIRECTIONS:
Brown meat and drain off fat.  Mix together seasoning mix in a bowl.  Add all the ingredients together in crockpot.  Cook on medium high for 4-6 hours. This can also be made on the stove-top in a large sauce pot, but the longer it simmers, the better infused the flavors will be.
