  1. Wow - this has got to be the easiest yet still tasty chili I've ever tried! I used diced tomatoes instead of the tomato sauce, and a whole packet of chili seasoning mix instead of just 1 tsp (we like things HOT at my house). My husband loved it!
     
  2. This was good and it was very easy to make, but I thought it was definitely missing something. I added a medium onion, finely chopped, 1/2 a green pepper, finely chopped, 1/4 c minced garlic, 1/3 c lemon juice. I also put black pepper, red pepper, and more chili powder. In addition, a doubled the amount of salsa it called for. The final product was very good. I would not use this as chili, but I would consider it a good chili base.
     
  3. Very yummy! Even the kids loved it...tho they love MANY spicy things! Didn't have the tomato sauce, so I used diced tomatoes...still tasted like a winner! Thanks
