I love my homemade chili recipe. The flavors come together in the perfect blend. You will always hear me say that I never want to taste something and know immediately what a certain flavor is. I want my food to delight not overpower the senses. I think my Homemade Chili Recipe fits that bill perfectly. A blend of flavor with just a touch of spice. The best thing about this Homemade Chili is that if you want it spicer, all you have to do is increase the red pepper. I love this with some corn chips, cheese, and a touch of sour cream. I also love it with cornbread.
