I love chili, but sometimes beans do not agree with my achy body so I go for this delightful and fulfilling dish.
If you are low carbing or keto this is the jam for you… Even if you aren’t, add some kidney beans to this recipe and you will thank me for the bowl of joy.
Let’s get started, I’m HANGRY!
