My husband did complain about the lack of meat, but he said he liked it otherwise. I usually boil some kind of noodles separately...like spaghetti, elbow macaroni or penne...and add it to my chili. I've made this once, and wanted to stay true to the recipe, so I didn't add pasta to it, but I probably will next time. Altho it is good without it, that is just what we are used to. I made my grandma's cornbread to go with it and it was delicious and so easy to make.
