Verde means green. Where is the green in this??????

Outstanding - just the Pork Chili Recipe I was looking for. The only thing I did different was that I used canned sun roasted tomatoes with garlic - still came out great! We served with out traditional Mexican food, but loved it mixed with Mexican rice in a flour torilla and a white queso on top with more Chili! - It is the best I have ever tried or made

I made this exactly how it was written and it was the best chili Verde I had. The flavors were great. P.S. It was green too!!

Awsome and easy. A great way to use chilies from the garden. My son ate this up and he's picky. As for the "chef" review above, well FYI jalapenos are green, anaheims can be picked green as well as serranos...........
