As written this was OK for us. We thought the chili was way too thin and the sauce didn't have much taste. I added onion powder, minced garlic, tomato sauce and tomato paste and then we enjoyed it more. I also added two cans of black beans and only one heaping tablespoon of chili powder as I don't like it too spicy. This was very easy to make.

I loved that this chili was more soupy then stew like consistency. I wasn't sure about the amount of chili powder, thinking it might be too much, but it was the right amount for me. To me it was just lacking some seasoning, so I added some garlic powder, salt, pepper and onion salt, next time I would add chopped onion to the meat, while browning. I used dark red kidney beans, as thats what I had on hand and it wouldn't change the flavor of the chili sauce. I used Rotel for the tomatoes and peppers mix and did opt to add the cheddar cheese and green onion. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for PRMR Tag Game.

My screen name is a diminutive in Lithuanian for bread, so you won't be suprised to learn that I love to bake bread. In recent years I have been baking a lot of sourdough breads and have several starters sitting in my refrigerator. But I like to cook a lot of other things, as well, especially from various cultures. The cat wishes I would concentrate on meat and fish... I joined a few years ago but started posting recipes and participating in forums just recently - I wish I had done so earlier. Recipezaar is a great community! Right now I am a co-host for the Breads and Baking and the Eastern Europe forums - I hope to see you there!
