I'm vegetarian, can I omit the meat?

Can I double the recipe?

Accepted Answer

Yes! This chili recipe is great for cooking in bulk, just make sure you have an extra-large Crock-pot to simmer it in.

I prefer a thinner chili, what do you recommend?

This is a thick and hearty chili by nature, if you prefer a thinner chili just add a cup or two of chicken broth before serving. Add as needed to reach the desired consistency.

Question 4

How can I make this chili spicier?
