I know this is an adopted recipe so I'll give my full review and suggestions. This was a little bland for my liking. It has a campfire chili feel to it, so I think it needs a little more flavour. This would benefit from either a cup of a bold BBQ sauce or chilis. I added some Chipotle Tabasco to my bowl and it improved the meal for me.
