I mostly make vegetable chili because that's my favorite but then I brown ground pork or beef on the side for my husband to add.

One thing he didn't mention was that after he received it, he did not immediately rip it open, but went into a store to see and feel it in person to make sure it was the *right* one.

That sounds great. The deer are impossible around which prevents much in the way of casual gardening.<BR/><BR/>Cynthia: 8$! wow that's pricey. Rancho Gordo sells it for 5$ for a lb, versus $2 for a lb of goya pinto beans for example, and you do have to pay for shipping, which I why I buy in batches. I like knowing that the beans are fresher and that I like the company from which I purchase. But I too often make chili with pinto and kidney beans, quite happily.Giffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05707304363683428207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4766163657250423290.post-20082184574536662682009-01-11T10:09:00.000-05:002009-01-11T10:09:00.000-05:00A wonderful array of winter dishes.
