Fluffy’s Chili


  • Author: Fluffy

Description

When it starts to get really cold, I like to warm up the family with a nice pot of my chili. People are outside shoveling snow and when they come inside they are tired and HUNGRY. The best way to handle this is to make enough food that is hearty and fills them up. My chili does that and takes minimal time to make.
