FLAVORFUL SOUTHWESTERN CHILI



Flavorful Southwestern Chili image

"This filling, hearty recipe comes from my grandmother," writes Jenny Greear from Huntington, West Virginia. "It's full of flavor, freezes beautifully and makes a complete, last-minute meal. I top it grated cheddar cheese and chopped black olives and serve tortilla chips on the side." JENNY'S TIP: "If I'm feeding a crowd, I increase the pinto beans to four cans to make the meat go farther."
