"Wish I had time for just one more bowl of chili."
-The dying words of Kit Carson
Compare this to the traditional Chili con Carne. There’s really not much difference and traditional chili, like many Mexican / Southwestern recipes, can actually be pretty good for you.
Chili powder is not simply dried chilies but usually has other spices blended in. These can include oregano, garlic, coriander, cumin, onion powder allspice and cloves.
