Introduction

This recipe uses mushrooms to replace half of the ground beef in a traditional chili recipe. Using mushrooms lowers the calore/fat content while retaining the meaty texture. Even my 8 year old mushroom hater gobbles it up!

*Cooking time includes a two hour simmer. This recipe uses mushrooms to replace half of the ground beef in a traditional chili recipe. Using mushrooms lowers the calore/fat content while retaining the meaty texture. Even my 8 year old mushroom hater gobbles it up!
