I use those chili kits - Brown Bag Chili, I think it's called. And ground turkey instead of ground beef - a sacriledge to some, but no one seems to notice. :)<br /><br />My dad has always refused to fly - ships, trains and automobiles for him!<br /><br />Lance -<br /><br />Thank you - I will tell him - he'll like that.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984802196897920610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-3235746415763663512009-09-12T06:17:42.261-04:002009-09-12T06:17:42.261-04:00Love the chili story!

He sizzled me up a steak just a couple of weeks ago. :) <br /><br />Joe -<br /><br />I suppose it was just that it was wartime, but the rest of the story: Dad said it that the deceased cooks (still sailors, too) had laid out all the fixings for the chili lunch already. As he stood there and pondered (not really knowing how to cook) a couple of guys walked by the door and said, "make it hot! Those other guys never made it hot enough!" So hence, the entire can went in. :)Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984802196897920610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-33449748983488013542009-09-11T10:17:40.552-04:002009-09-11T10:17:40.552-04:00Sounds like the sort of thing I'd do with the ...Sounds like the sort of thing I'd do with the Chilli powder.
