  1. I can't really give this any stars, because I used it as a basis for the chili I cooked. Instead of 4 15oz cans of tomato sauce, I used 1 15oz can and a 4oz can of tomato paste. I added 1 TBS of sugar to cut down on the acid flavor. I cooked kidney beans instead of of using canned beans. I substituted tomato juice for the water. I know it looks like I changed the whole recipe, but I really didn't. All the spices were there and I only substituted tomoto style products. This came out exactly the way I thought it would. If you must change something at least follow the intent of the recipe, because this came out as one of my better chili's. I want to use the leftovers for the chili-chicken enchalades?

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

HI!! I am a mother of 4 children, 36 years old, and a baker. I am currently trying to lose weight, so I am looking for lighter recipes, though I seem to be drawn to the not so light recipes. I am usually looking for new ways to cook chicken, as that is my children's favorite food.
