Recipe Exchange - A-1 Chili

This past Saturday night we tried a new chili recipe and OMG...it is absolutely to die for. I figured it would certainly be a crime against humanity if I didn't share it with the world.

A couple of notes:

1. The recipe calls for green pepper, but I left that out because the hub is not a fan - it still tasted awesome.


2. The recipe calls for Chili Powder but because I have mushy toddler brain, I forgot to add it - it still tasted awesome.


3. The recipe calls for a LARGE onion, which I thought was too much so I used a medium-sized onion - it still tasted awesome.

Bottom line: this chili is awesome. So without further adieu:
