This recipe is excellent and is very easy to prepare! It's delicious and seems almost "meaty" because it is thick and delicious.

This was pretty good, but my family didn't really go for it. It was kind of somewhere between chili and tomato soup. If I make this again I'd add another can of beans or two, and maybe some celery. I ended up making a cup of rice, and mixing some into that. It was even less like chili then, but I actually liked it better. Thanks for sharing.
