This recipe deserves every star and more. I made this for a church potluck and they were scraping the pot for every last bit. It was easy to make too, because all you do is throw everything in there and enjoy. A word of forewarning to first-timers like me-- I couldn't find the chile peppers so I figured I could just jalepeno peppers instead. The chili turned out fine but my hands were burning the rest of the night from handling the peppers bare-handed! Be careful if you decide to stray from the recipe!

My husband's stomach is probably giving this 5 stars. He said it was better than Olive Garden's! I used cheap ingrdients froma local store and it still came out fabulous. I decided to add a little Italian seasoning and parmesan cheese to my croutons and I made sure to put on a lot of sauce and cheese. This recipe is easy to adapt for a dinner for two. Definitely will be making again.

AWESOME! I followed another reviewer's advice and had all my ingredients on hand and I waited for the perfect boil before timing. I've made them twice this week already! Perfect for holiday entertaining. This is one recipe that deserves all its stars.
