easy and very, very yummy!
It was good, although I did half of the recipe and was very modest with chili peppers. Thanks.
This was a delicious and easy basic beef chili recipe – great kick and consistency! I added a little more vegetables, and some cumin to mine (because I love the flavor of cumin in chili)! It made the house smell wonderful while it was simmering too – bonus!
Yummy! Will add more spice next time.
