This was really good! Our's turned out like soup, lots of broth, not chili or stew like at all. I love the convenience of layering everything in the crock pot and coming home to the house smelling like a Mexican restaurant and have a warming soup waiting. I served ours with Fritos corn chips, cheddar cheese and fat free sour cream. Next time I will add jalapeno and canned chilies because I just wasn't spicy enough for our tastes. Made for Spring 2013 PAC.

This was really easy to put together, and we really enjoyed it. I followed the recipe as written and cooked on low about 6 hours (overnight). There was not much broth at the end of cook time, so I would call this more of a stew than a soup. Chunky and full of flavor, I served this with topped with sour cream and tortilla chips. Comfort food with the ease of crock pot cooking. Thanks for posting - made for FALL PAC 2012.

This soup does have a kick to it. My family enjoyed it. I love soups made in the crock pot because the flavor is enhanced. With that said, I wouldn't call this a chili but more of a soup. The broth is more watery than thick like a chili but this doesn't take away from the soup. Served it with corn bread.

I miss being able to sort through my saved recipes by rating, or even being able to search in what were my cookbooks. ?I miss the forum games/swaps/events. ?I feel sadness for all the time I wasted saving recipes that I can't find and disappointment in the people working at food.com who decided that all these changes were necessary. ?I read in the blog that read-only forums will be back when the technicalities can be worked out. ?But when will I be able to find a recipe in my own recipe box. ?What sense is there in a recipe website that doesn't allow you to search for one of your recipes? ?I used to think that I could start whittling down my collection of paper cookbooks, and hand written note cards because I could find whatever I needed online. ?Perhaps I still can, but not here. ?Thank God I didn't get rid of any of them.
