3 to 4 lbs of ground beef (80/20 Mix)

2 to 3 garlic cloves chopped or crushed

2 green peppers, seeded and diced

1 poblano pepper, seeded and diced (can omit if you cannot find)

3 or 4 14.5 ounce cans of fire roasted diced tomatoes (she buys the one at aldi) you can sub other diced tomatoes if you cannot find

⅓ cup of chili powder (she always ends up adding a little more to taste)

1 tablespoon of smoked or regular paprika

½ teaspoon of garlic salt

½ teaspoon of garlic powder

½ tsp of chili pepper flakes (you can add more or less)

½ teaspoon of cinnamon (she sometimes uses a chipotle cinnamon we have thats special)

Just under 1 tablespoon of sugar (reduces the acid)

couple of shakes of dried Italian seasoning or oregano (about ¼ teaspoon)

little bit of cooking oil or butter
