Introduction

This used to be a soup recipe, but I adapted it to make a Chili. Now it flies off my dinner table in record time even for my "it's too spicy" clan. You can top it with tortilla chips, sour cream, velveeta or cheddar cheese. Keep in mind those extra toppings are not included in nutrient count of the recipe though.
