Spicy Beanless Chili
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 10 min. Cook: 1 hour
YIELD: 2 servings.
My father came up with this recipe when I lived at home. He always added the optional cayenne pepper, and we four kids would mop up the chili with slices of bread. I don't use the cayenne for my family, but it still warms you up on cold days.
