Notes:
7
1. You can reduce or increase how spicy this chili is by reducing or increasing the cayenne and jalapeno. This chili has a little kick to so try it with less first if you are unsure and add more to taste.

2. I typically serve mine over mashed potatoes or french fries with a little cheddar cheese on top (yum!) but it's also delicious on its own!
