"This is great for chili lovers. If you like it spicy, you can use diced tomatoes with zesty jalapenos. Then just garnish with sour cream and lime wedges."

This was ok for us. I had to add more salt and chili powder to give it some flavor. It was kinda bland as is. It smelled wonderful and I'll make it again, with added seasonings. Made for 1-2-3 Hits Zaar Tag Game 2010.

This was very tasty and smelled SOOO good while it was simmering. I would cook it again just for that smell. I added about 1-2 teaspoons of salt and 1 Tablespoon of chili powder. Good recipe! Just note that it is a stew with a tex mex kick, not a chili.
