Did make a bit of an adjustment when putting this together ~ I used a little less than the teaspoon of cumin, & left out the 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper! This was an unusual chili for us, but we did thoroughly enjoy it! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed in New Kids on the Block tag]
