    I modified the recipe to use what I had on hand. Substituted red peppers & lima beans for the green peppers & green beans. No hot sauce, ground turkey, white beans or mushrooms. We loved it! Plenty left over. - 12/3/09

    Makes a lot of chili. Mine came out a little sweet. I didn't add the hot sauce, but salt and peppered each serving to taste. Good meal for the family. Fun to make. - 10/5/09

    This recipe sounds really good. I may try it with veggie crumbles. Now to eat it in moderation! - 9/9/08
