I've been making this chili for a few years and it's always a hit. I took it last night to a "Chili Cook Off" and it won another award!!It's another one of those easy peasy - even your kids can do most of the work recipes (my girls are only 6 & 3!)
The ingredient list is a long one - but they are basics - you probably have all the ingredients in your house right now!!
