Chili - Tomato - Allergy Free CookBook

Updated: 11 hours ago


Another food I had no use for as child. Most versions I met were almost entirely tomato with very little meat or bean. I make ten can chili exclusively for my husband, as he likes the tomato based version. Ten can chili makes enough to last for days. An excellent hot food container meal to take when eating away from home. Spices will need to be adjusted to personal preference and taste. Hubby adds a chili spice while cooking and then hot sauce to each bowlful. I make a smaller, different type of chili for me called chili bean and chicken.
