Chili With Fresh Salsa

Submitted by Mere de Claire

"A delicious chili with fresh salsa as the main ingredient. This is an adaptation from Chuck and Dave's Salsa website. I love the freshness the salsa brings to the chili. If you prefer a spicier chili, consider using 2 tubs of hot salsa. If you prefer a more mild flavor, try 2 tubs of mild salsa. Enjoy, my family sure did!"
