	         			| coledorrito: | So much chili. Fantastic easy recipe I would use this for contest chili with just a little extra cumin |  
	         			| LoriGandhi: | Husband loved.  He would prefer to have a tangy flavor added to the dish, he puts katsup on everything.  Not this.  Refused. I dislike chili and anything with beans.  I also grew up with noodles in the chili but loved this and didn't miss the noodles.
 Best part it was very filling and satisifying.
