3 bell peppers, seeded and chopped
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
1 bunch green onions, chopped
2 lb. tomatillos
6 (4 oz.) cans diced green chilies
4 tsp. oregano
4 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. cayenne (you can add more or leave it out to taste)
4 c. water
8 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1 lb. ground turkey or ground pork, crumbled and cooked (this can be omitted for a vegetarian version)
2 lb. sm. white beans

Cook the beans according to the package. When they are cooked, rinse them well in a colander, stirring them up with your hand. This loosens the stems and washes them away. Otherwise, the bean stems break off in the chili and resemble small worms.
Tomatillos are interesting. They are like little green tomatoes wrapped in brown paper. Take the brown cover off and wash the tomatillos. They are sticky under the brown coating until they are washed. Quarter the washed, peeled tomatillos and put them in a large stew pot.

Place everything except the meat and beans in the stew pot with the tomatillos and let it all cook until the tomatillos are completely broken down. It should look thick and soupy. You can add salt and pepper to taste and add the beans and meat.

buy a large cut of lean beef it need not be a expensive cut. brown it in all sides and place it in a preassure cooker or pan with a lid and cook it for a long time, then ADD ONE SMALL CLOVE OF GARLIC SOME MEXICAN OREGONO (just a small amount) two large cans of diced green chilies and cook it down to a nice stew like consistancy using a little apple juce to cook it down in adds sweetness and tenderizes it> serve with flour tortillas refied beans and a cold bottle of beer>
