    The nutrition info is messed up... the serving size says 1, but it's most likely for 4-8 (at least). Nevertheless, I'm excited to make this today!

    @Jennifer- Thank you for pointing out the error in the serving size and nutritional information. Looks like there is a software bug. I have adjusted the serving size and will have the remaining nutritional information corrected as soon as possible.

    Thanks Chef Heather! On another note, I made this chili yesterday, and it was delicious! (I added additional ground cumin to better fit our tastes, but not a lot). It's a very yummy fall food, especially with some shredded cheese and sour cream (and hot sauce if that's your thing)!

    So glad to hear that this was a tasty success for you! That is the beauty about chili, you can serve it up so many ways! Over rice or corn chips, on top of a hot dog, with a side of corn bread or topped with cheese or sour cream (like you suggested) and even topped with raw yellow or green onions!

    My first attempt at making chili and it was a hit! Very good and very filling! (I prefer chili with a bit more "kick", but for our family as a while, it was good!) I also added more oregano than the recipe called for.

    This recipe for chili is very easy and tastey. I cut back on the recipe amounts abit because I didn't want a ton of leftovers, it's only me and two young sons, so it was the perfect amount. I also cut back the chili powder a bit and added canned tomato sauce..perfect for little mouths.

    Also added a little chocolate and cinnamon, but this worked really well for us.

    This was AMAZING! The whole family LOVED it! Instead of ground beef, I used ground bison and I added 1 chopped green bell pepper. I made corn bread on the side and now it's the new family fav!

    Chili is a very versatile dish. You can substitute many different proteins. Try using ground turkey for a leaner version. I also sometimes will use stew meat, or even sirloin or round steak which I will cut into small pieces, brown and then cook several hours to be sure it's nice and tender. You can also slow cook chili in a crock pot; on high 3-4 hours or on low for 7-8 hours.
