  • “Very good and easy to make. I followed the recipe other then I didn’t add the olives. I loved it but of course the rest of the family thought it could have been spicer. They just added more hot sauce at the table. Made for Spring PAC 2011.”

  • “I substituted morning star crumbles for the lean ground beef and used fire roasted can tomatoes.In addition to the listed ingredients I Add 1 can of pinto beans, 1 can of refried beans, about 1 tbs of minced garlic, 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce, chili powder and paprika to taste.The chili was fast to make, had great flavor and the refried beans gave it some rich depth.Will make it again.”
