I made it with 1/2 extra lean ground beef and 1/2 ground mild italian sausage... It was very good! Froze well and tasted just as good when reheated. I will be making again

Have members of the family who don.t like beans in the dish, tastes great without them.

My family loves chili, which I usually hate due to the texture. This recipe was absolutely SCRUMPTIOUS! We've all agreed that this is the ONLY recipe that will be used in our home. Thanks Kraft!

Spouse loves Spicy Chili. This was bland to his liking. Put additional spices to recipe.

This comes from an older issue, and I'm still making it. I actually haven't made any other chili since I found this recipe. The first time was for the boys after a ski trip, I tripled the recipe, and it stll dissapeared! DELISH!

Excellent recipe - family favorite! My family loves it with one can of black beans and one can of corn added, with some grated cheddar sprinkled on top. It's also great with just beef. Cornbread on the side is very tasty instead of over rice. Thanks for a super meal idea!

Made this for a potluck and everyone loved it. I skipped the beans, since I don't like them.

This meal was a big hit, and that is great with me as my husband is a fussy eater. If I could give this meal a personal rating, it would be 12 ************
