My mom and I found the following recipe lately and decided it sounded really good. Neither of us can remember where we found it, so I can't give credit to the right person, but thank you to the person who came up with this one! While it is called chili, there is no chili powder or chili peppers in it. This is a perfect recipe for a cold winter night {we've certainly had our share of those the last few days!}, and isn't too high on Points Plus values for those following Weight Watchers.

HI Emily,
