Slow cooked chili, made with dried beans so they are easier on the pocket book and don't have the large amounts of sodium and such in them that you find in canned beans... just be warned, you will need to adjust your spices some, because this is a VERY mild chili, so if you like it hotter you will need to make adjustments to iit.

An easy mexican rice that can be eaten alone, or put into a tortilla for a delicious burrito. You can play around with how much of each ingredient to use, so the amounts I used are variable. You can also add more ingredients, such as taco seasoning. It's a fun recipe to play around with!

The original recipe was from a Unity Inn Cookbook, Unity Village, Missouri.

Makes a great dip for celery sticks, crackers, or melba toast
