  1. Lola REVIEW:

    This recipe has always (years and years) been my favorite recipe for chili. I even make it meatless and use some of the meatless types of veggie patties in the pot and it turns out great!! This time of the year requires meatless soups and this is my go-to chili instead of soup! It's a winner!!

  2. Linda REVIEW:

    I discovered this recipe in a magazine over 30 years ago. It has been my favourite ever since. It is the best chili recipe I have ever tasted.
