This fast chili recipe is a simple and delicious treat on a cool day. It can be made as spicy (or not) as you like and kids love it!
A trick that I always try is pureeing raw liver in the blender and adding it to this recipe to sneak in the nutrients of liver without my husband or kids knowing (don’t tell them!). [We buy grass fed liver here]
This recipe reheats really well and is a great bean-free chili recipe for those who avoid lectins or just don’t like beans. We also sometimes add a tablespoon of cinnamon and an ounce of dark chocolate plus a few teaspoons of honey instead of the chili powder and cumin to make a Cincinnati Style Chili.
