I created this chili specifically to top a plate of hot spaghetti. It combines two classic dinner favorites for a family-approved meal! It only gets better with a sprinkle of cheddar cheese and a dollop of sour cream.

- 1 can / 14.5 oz stewed tomatoes with juice (cut up) 
- 1 can / 10.75 oz Campbell’s condensed tomato soup, undiluted 
- 1 can / 15 oz tomato sauce 
- 1 can / 4 oz sliced mushrooms, drained 
- 2 tbsp chili powder 
- 2 tbsp cold water 
- 1 tbsp sugar 
- 1-1/2 tsp salt 
- 1 tsp dried oregano 
- 1 tsp dried basil 
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes 
- 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper 
- 1 bay leaf 
- 1 can / 15 oz kidney beans, rinsed and drained 
- hot cooked spaghetti 
- Garnishes
- cheddar cheese, shredded 
- sour cream 
Directions
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Partially cook onion, green pepper, and celery.
- Push to the side and add ground beef.
- Season with Worcestershire sauce, Greek seasoning, and pepper.
- Crumble beef, cook until browned and vegetables are tender, adding garlic the last couple minutes of cooking time.
- Drain grease.
- Transfer the ground beef mixture into a slow cooker and add all other ingredients except for kidney beans and spaghetti.
- Stir well.
- Cook on high for 1 hour.
- Turn to low and cook for 4 hours, adding kidney beans during last 30 minutes of cooking.
- Serve over hot cooked spaghetti and garnish with cheddar cheese and sour cream.
Notes
- If I have them in the fridge, I like to add chopped red bell pepper and chopped zucchini. Saute them with the other vegetables. It adds extra nutrition and flavor.
- I love to serve this with garlic cheese toast.
