This dish I have made several times now (I have picky eaters by the way) everyone at the house loves it and I am getting ready to make it again today??

This recipe is AMAZING!!! I have tried it with turkey and I have also tried it with vegetarian meat and each time it was delicious and flavorful. The one item I did add to it each time was sweet corn and that is just because I love chili with corn in it.
