TIIAPAHFTB Chili
"This recipe is better known as "Throw it in a pot and hope for the best." Good news, I got measurements just for you. This chili's got a medium heat with some sweetness to counteract it, hearty tomato base, a mix of beans and ground beef and, of course, it goes great with wine."

Cook for 3-5 minutes until bell pepper has softened.
- Lower heat to medium and add in remaining ingredients: beans, tomato paste, diced tomatoes, beef stock, and brown sugar. Bring to a simmer, then lower the temp to low.

- Serve immediately over noodles and topped with your favorite toppings!
