Great chili starter recipe. As stated in the book, you can use this base as the foundation of your own chili recipe. (I found this in the Marlboro Country Cookbook called "Morning Fires, Evening Lights" (Philip Morris, Inc, 1998) (One of my absolute favorite recipe books, even though I'm a vegetarian, found a wealth of veg friendly recipes in there!

great foundation recipe. too many forget that the best dishes are created from a good base. I like this over rice, works well with any meat and firm tofu as well. :-)
