We love this chili! I resist the urge to overdo & add other things like fresh onions & garlic, etc. & keep it simple. Only change I make is to add a greater variety of beans. We serve this with lettuce, cheese, diced tomatoes, onions, sour cream, tortilla chips, etc. & everyone eats it their way ~ taco salad, chips & cheese with the taco soup on top, or straight up in the bowl. I have a large family -lots of kids/grandkids & so make this for one of our family dinner nights & all enjoy!

This chili is very good and I always make it and get requests to give out the recipe. I like it because it makes a big pot of chili which is good for our family as they love it and it never lasts long.
