Quick & Easy California 3-Bean Chili

• Chili
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1 green bell pepper, coarsely chopped
• 1/2 cup red wine
• 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
• 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 (15 ounce) can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 (15 ounce) can great northern beans, drained and rinsed
• California Spice Blend
• 4 teaspoons chili powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon seasoned pepper

1. Heat oil in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and green pepper, cook 5 min., stirring often.
2. Stir in spice mix and remaining ingredients. (I like to toast the spices for about a minute before adding the other ingredients.)
3. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 20 min., stirring occasionally. This freezes beautifully.
