French Chili

This was reminiscent of the old chili my mother made with a pound of hamburger, a can of red kidney beans, and a can of tomato soup.

I browned some of the wonderful little French Bistro sausages you sent for Christmas, along with some onions and garlic. Then I added a can of cannelini beans, half a can of tomatoes, and a little water. I seasoned with salt, pepper, and fresh parsley and thyme and simmered for a half hour. It was a perfect casual winter supper. I served it with a green bean and tomato salad and garlic bread.
