This recipe makes about 10 quarts of mildly-spiced chili and serves about 20 people. Serve plain or over spaghetti, baked potato or rice, with grated low-fat cheese and chopped onions on the side. Tortilla chips or browned chunks of Italian bread are also good on the side. The chili freezes well. Freeze in plastic quart containers for quick 2 or 3 person meals.
Delicious and just the right 'spiciness' for me. I highly recommend this. The fact that the meat and beans did not overwhelm the fresh ingredients was superb. Thanks Art!
