This is a very simple, quick chili that is perfect for the cool nights ahead and it is absolutely YUMMY! I like to serve it with shredded cheddar cheese and cornbread sticks. It's truly a very flavorful chili that's not too mild and not too spicy. You can also add your favorite ingredients and spices to make it all your own. Hope y'all enjoy this chili as much as we do.
