16 oz garbanzo beans
16 oz Pinto beans
16 oz Kidney beans
1 large onion (I prefer Walla Walla Sweets)
At least 6 cloves of garlic (I use 12 normally)
28 oz whole tomatoes or chopped
1 red bell pepper
1 green bell pepper
1 yellow or orange bell pepper
Sliced mushrooms
2 carrots thinly sliced
2 celery ribs thinly sliced
2 zucchini thinly sliced
1 tablespoon oregano
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/3 cup good chili powder

Combine all ingredients and mix well. Cook in slow cooker on low for 6-8 hours or high 3-4 hours. Also can be cooked in oven in heavy covered pot at 350 for 1-2 hours. Serve with sour cream if people need to put the fire out.
