Wicklewood's Not Hot but Smokin' Chilli

"My mother in law has developed an aversion to hot spicy foods so I have adapted our usual family favourite chilli by reducing the heat and increasing the flavour with the use of paprika,, (it must be smoked Paprika) It is so popular it has now become a regular addition to our family favourites. If you do want some extra heat just add 1/2 teaspoon of chilli powder or a few dashes of tobasco. Delicious served with plain boiled rice or favourite savoury rice, we prefer my Aztec rice #448815"

  1. I decided, at the last moment to try your recipe,instead of using my own! it was the addition of the smoked paprika that sounded so delicious. <br/><br/> I did add a teaspoon of Chilli to give it the kind of kick I like and I did not have any haricot beans so doubled up on the red kidney beans othrwise I followed the recipe exactly and both me and my husband really enjoyed it. serving it with rice and some green salad it made a delectable meal. thanks so much for posting

I am in the process of starting my own business, which initially was exclusively targeted at ceoliacs, but thanks to my new husband and his diabetes, we hope to create food that is not only gluten free and sugar free or low carb, but will also cater for those amongst us with a whatever attitude to healthy food...Yes I do have one left at home,,bring on the empty nest.</p> <p><span><span><strong>The other man in my life</strong></span></span></p> <p><img title=The src=http://img577.imageshack.us/img577/5314/file4226.jpg alt=width=320 height=213 /></p>
