The best chili I have had in yesrs. It was served over elbow macaroni. Can't wait to make for my family.

This is my go to recipe for chili. Everyone loves it, I can change it up how I want depending on if I'm in the mood for more or less spicy. I also add whole wheat noodles and use ground turkey at times to change the nutritional value. But it tastes AMAZING and is very healthy! Doesn't get better than that. Not to mention very simple to put together. Love it!
