What a delicious chili recipe -- simple ingredients with big flavor. I loved the use of the pinto beans. The only change I made was to sub a can of rotel tomatoes & green chilies vs. the can of green chilies as we wanted a little more heat. This chili is great with sour cream and cornbread. I will definitely make this chili again -- it's soooo good anytime, but even better when the weather is cold. : )
