I had always heard that pregnant women get uncontrollable cravings. Well...driving home from Minocqua yesterday I got the sudden craving for my Mom's Chili. Why I got this desire I am not sure...guess that is why they call it a craving. So needless to say, before we even got home to De Pere I called home and asked my parents to email the recipe. Everyone's chili is different but here is my favorite...my Mom's!
2 Pounds of Hamburger - cooked and drained
1 - 2 cans of Whole tomatoes - peeled (they come that way)
2 cans of dark red kidney beans
I rinse all the cans and throw that water in as well (not full cans, just some extra liquid)
1 teaspoon each of Garlic powder, onion powder, & salt
1/2 Teaspoon of black pepper
2 -3 teaspoons of Chili powder
Put it all in a slow cooker and cook all day on about medium. It really isn't "cooking" so you can eat it any time, but the tastes mix if it simmers all day.
You can increase or decrease any of the ingredients depending on what you really like

I craved oranges, orange juice, and milk. I seriously could not go a day without having at least one orange. I don't think I have touched an orange since Lillian has been here!
