I enjoyed it, but if my family could give it negative stars, they would. Very bland, and too much cornbread. If I was going to make it again, I would use the Marie Callendar cornbread, and just follow the recipe on the package.

I used canned organic chili and added a lot of veggies... I thought the cornmeal top was bland but couldnt figure out what to put in it to make it better

This is a really yummy recipe, we've enjoyed it a few times! Warning: the cornbread part is very very thick! The actual recipe FOR the chili beans is in Dr. Barnard's book, and using dry beans makes the whole process a bit time-intensive. But you could use 6 cups of leftover chili just as well.
