I love this recipe! If you like it hot, hot leave it exactly the way it is. Now I like it hot but my family has to have it on a more mild scale. Here is what I did, I added 1 jalepeno, I started with 1 T. each of chili powder/cumin and ended up using 3 T. each after testing it, I used 1 chipotle chili ant 1 t. of the adobo sauce and that gave it some kick, I used 1 red bell pepper (and didn't tell my husband), and finally because of the store not having 4 cans of kidney beans I used 1 can kidney, 2 cans chili beans, and 1 can red beans. Everything else I kept the same and it turned out excellent! Thank you!
