Luckily, this recipe makes a lot, since everyone is apt to want another bowl. It freezes well and makes excellent leftovers-if there is any left. Not that I'm a retired farm wife, I enjoy traveling and volunteering.

Very good! I purchased vegetable juice instead of tomato juice by accident and it was still good! I followed other suggestions and added about 1 cup of macaroni and only 1 can on beans! We loved it!

added garlic and more pasta. Next time will increase the chili powder a bit. My hubby and 3 kids (11,4 ad 2) all LOVED it! Prob will only add 1 can of beans next time also as the beans were a bit overkill for my personal taste!

I don't have a Dutch oven or large kettle--can this be prepared in a regular large pot? Or in the crockpot?

I used one can of Italian diced tomatoes, and it was perfect.

My boyfriend and I made this and it was really good! We had diced tomatoes w/ green chilies on hand, so we just used that, and we chose to add extra macaroni. We topped ours with a few cubes of velveta cheese and a dallop of sour cream for fun, but it was perfect by itself. I didn't even have to ask if it was a keeper, my boyfriend told me right away to add this to the "make again" list. Since this works so well as a dutch oven recipe, I can't wait to make this outside over a campfire. Thanks so much!

I made this for dinner and brought some in to work. Everyone raved about it. I did add a can of green chilies. It's a keep and will be used often this winter.Scout312

made this last night and there were no leftovers. I increased the chili powder for a bit more kick and added crushed garlic plus garlic pwder. I also used half lean ground beef and half fat free ground turkey to lighten it up a bit. Very good recipe and a keeper for my household!
