Spicy Three Bean Chili

Isn’t chili so great?! I love it because it’s 100% customizable and you can have a different variation each time you make it. You can serve it over rice or pasta…use it for a chili dog or burger…add it to a cheese sauce for an awesome chili mac or just enjoy it as is – which is how I like it!

This chili recipe is full up on spice and really packs a punch! I like to serve it with cooling avocado and a wedge of lime. Delish!
