    too much broth, i added some frozen vegetables. The cinnamon is a little over whelming. I traded out some of the jack cheese for a couple a couple of table spoons of cream cheese. This recipe needs a lot of help.

    I have edited the recipe and it should be much better. @Meredith, if you ever want to "tighten" a chili (thicken the consistency) just add a slurry of masa mixed with a bit of water or cornstarch. Stir into chili and simmer a little longer. It will thicken the chili.

    I like my chili a little bit thicker than this recipe makes it, but my husband said it was perfect. It also does thicken up a bit on standing. The flavors were great. I will be making this again.

    @Crystal, most chili will thicken on it's own when it cools down. Please note my previous comment about "tightening" chili.
