Used mild rotel & cut back the chili powder by half, just as I did with the red pepper (crushed red pepper flakes)! Although we do love chili, we don't care for it too spicy hot! Worked great, & after serving up 2 bowls, I divided the rest into 2-serving portions, cooled it in the refrig & then it went into the freezer to enjoy another time! Thanks for posting the recipe!

Made this for Fall PAC 2011 and it is an easy chili to make. I did use half ground beef and half cut up chuck roast (I had some to use in the freezer), I used regular rotel, fresh garlic and kidney beans. I did leave out the red peppers because DH's Dad is coming for lunch and he isn't as crazy about hot/spicey things. I have sneaked a few bites and it is quite tasty...thank you!

This is definitely fast and easy! It is also very HOT if you use the given measurements like I did. I used pinto beans instead of kidney beans, Hot Rotel, and fresh garlic in place of powder. This was one great pot of chili. Thanks for sharing. Made for PAC Fall 2011.
