This was a south beach recipe I modified. It is just as yummy without the beef and tomato sauce... but I think those two ingredients make a delicious difference This was a south beach recipe I modified.

    Incredible!
    Used garbonzo beans for the pinto, frozen tomatoes from the garden, and grass fed beef. Great recipe - a real keeper. - 3/27/13

    Incredible!
    Absolutely delish. It tastes like it simmered all day even though it only cooks for 20 minutes. It was easy to make too, always a plus. - 10/15/12

    Incredible!
    Spectacular flavor! I used celery salt in place of celery and cumin powder instead of cumin seeds, half a can of petit diced tomatoes instead of a whole can. It was dee-lish! I will make this everytime I want chili from now on! thanks so much for the recipe! - 6/14/11
