snort!
Hey, I'd share a campfire with you any time sse, and I'd even try the chicken bean soup.
Me too Sam but he would have to leave the margarine at home!
No margarine was harmed in the making of that chile.
sounds like a wonderfull adaptation of the original chile intent. that is, chile is low-cost substantive protein rich food.
beans and chicken could easily qualify, with sufficient inputs of chili pepper and onions.
what makes a basic chili? pepper and meat, right? and then add additionals, or not. beans, tomato, tomatillo, salt, etc??
what are the essential ingredients in order to have a "true chili?"
i say pepper, onions, salt, and a meat that takes a while to cook, at the minimum. adding tomatoes and related, and some garlic. anything else? remember, we're speaking of minimum ingredients for a true substantive meal?
