This is the Top Secret Recipes version of Wendy's chili. I never really liked beans in my chili until I tried this recipe. I love it because it is so hardy. We sometimes serve it with cheese, onions and fritos.

29 ounces crushed tomatoes or 29 ounces tomato sauce
29 ounces black beans, with liquid

1/2 cup celery, diced
4 ounces green chilies
2 medium tomatoes, diced
2 teaspoons ground cumin
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
