Serve plain or over spaghetti, baked potato or rice, with grated low-fat cheese and chopped onions on the side. Tortilla chips or browned chunks of Italian bread are also good on the side. The chili freezes well. Freeze in plastic quart containers for quick 2 or 3 person meals. Recipe by: Art Guyer at ThePoint@beachlink.com Posted to KitMailbox Digest by AnnDeTar on Mar 9, 1998
