Linda's Chili

Today is the anniversary of the day George and I became engaged 43 years ago. It was an extremely exciting day. We have had a wonderful life together and I thank God for him every day. This chili recipe is one I made up myself and my family seemed to like it very much. Hope you will enjoy it.

2 lbs. hamburger
1 onion, chopped
Salt to taste.
Brown together and then drain fat.
While meat and onion are browning, put all other ingredients into large cooking pan.
