Homemade Chili Recipe

My husband likes a good chili, a lot, especially a homemade batch of chili. He likes them spicy, but I don't like my chili too spicy. I've tried many different chili recipes until we could find one we both liked. That had some good taste and spice, but not too spicy for me, this recipe fits the bill. And as with any other chili recipe, you can make it hotter or more mild, depending on your taste.

This recipe is very versatile. The ingredients do not have to be exact, and you can change things up a bit, depending on your mood and what you have in your cabinets.

Many things you can do

There are many ways to change up this recipe. You can use stewed tomatoes instead of diced. We have used dark red kidney beans, light red, and even black or pinto beans, if that's all we had on hand. And you can vary the meat. Lots of times we use leftover pot roast. We save some of our pot roast meat, I chop it up, and brown it with the cumin, chili powder and spike.

There's no limit to what you could change around and make this the way you want. Serve it with some crackers or garlic bread and a salad, and you have a whole meal.
