1 lb. ground beef
1 onion, chopped
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1 to 1 1/2 tbsp. chili powder
2 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1 (28 oz.) can crushed tomatoes, with puree
1 (30 oz.) can chili beans
1 (6 oz.) can tomato paste

In a large saucepan, cook beef and onion over medium high heat, stirring often to break up meat, until lightly browned, 5-10 minutes. Drain off excess fat. Stir in all remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer, uncovered 10-15 minutes.
