"I got this recipe from a girlfriend. Great for cold winter days and when you don't want to spend a whole lot of time in the kitchen. I love to mix in about 3/4 tablespoon of sour cream and a bit of sliced green onion."

Wonderful, thick chili! This was really great, easy to make and it has a lot of flavor. I drained about 4 ounces of juice off the kidney beans as I wanted a little more liquid. We ate this so fast there was no time to use any of the suggested garnishes. Everyone loved this so I'll be making it many times this coming winter. Made for *Zaar Cookbooks Tag 2008* game

I live in West Texas with my new husband, Mark, and our FIVE kids! When we met he already had 3 children from his first marriage and I had a son of my own. In January of 2005 we welcomed into the world our new baby into our family. With five children, we felt it was best that I give up my career to stay at home with them, as they are our top priority. For fun, Mark and I like to travel. We've been to many beautiful places, our favorite being Bermuda. We definitly plan to return someday. We've also been to the Virgin Islands, Puerta Vallarta, Cabo San Lucas, and Aruba. None of them really compare to Bermuda, though! I don't really have a favorite cookbook; I prefer stumbling upon recipees from friends & family, magazines, or the backs of product boxes. If I had a month off with no responsibilities, I would probably lay on a towel at the beach with a good book in my hand.
