A note here, I'll try to post recipes as we try them out and let y'all know what we think. I'm posting two today that I've used in the past that not only I liked, but both my husband and older son liked as well (our younger son doesn't get a say yet =) If anyone has any recipes they've tried and liked please share them. I'm looking for recipes that still taste good but are also lower in calories and have less meat in them.
I originally got this one from a "Family Circle" magazine several years ago. It's also online, but you have to register to access it (it doesn't cost anything to register). This is a non-spicy chili recipe, though I personally love spicy food, this one is a better recipe for the whole family. The baked beans and corn make it a bit sweeter than your typical chili.
