Hi..
The Chilli is good ..
you should keep it..

I think it is very good. It comes in a can so is pretty portable, too. You can eat it as is, or top with a little fat free sour cream and cheese, or use it to stuff a burrito! Yum!

Are you referring to the Turkey Chili or the Chili Con Carne? The Turkey Chili is a shelf-stable dinner entree, while the Chili Con Carne is a canned lunch entree.
I like both, but prefer the Chili Con Carne (if I had to choose one over the other). Luckily, when I'm going thru my winter chili cravings, I can enjoy chili for both lunch and dinner.
Hope you enjoy it too!

thanx guys...I think that's exactly what I needed...some ideas on what the heck to do w/ it...I will pepper food to death !!!

Hi there WOO... I am refering to the lunch chili in the can.

I love it. It is good on top of salad. Then I pretend it is a taco salad.

Yum, yum, yum!!!! to both the turkey chili and the chili con carne! Enjoy, we'll look for your review.

The chili con carne is one of the best! I add cooked onions, bell peppers and tomatoes. It is also one of the cheapest which helps the budget.

Thank you all for your responses...I went out to the gorcery and got fat free sr cream and fat free cheese...I will definately post the reviews...looking forward since it's one of the cheapest ! (lol)

I had the turkey chili last night and it was great! The only problem was GAS! I'm glad I was at home alone most of the night because I sure was stinking up the place! Anyone else have this problem? Maybe I should take a beano next time (is that allowed on the program?).

Yes, Beano is allowed, and commonly used.
It can also help if you are having gas problems from too many green vegetables (like broccoli).

There are lots of great ideas in the Creative Recipes book for Chili...you can really do a lot with the chili and a starch (1/3 c rice, a few (10) tortilla chips, macaroni, 1/2 baked potato or a tortilla). Mix chili with tomato, onion or salsa and then with the starch or pour on tortilla, potato or tortilla chips.

YIPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEE !

It's funny how we all have our own taste. I usually hate the box dinners and am also not a big chili fan. But the turkey chili is great on a large bed of lettuce - like LynnC said, it's like a taco salad. I really missed the cheese though, and if I had any meat coming, would definitely add some cheese. I thought the canned chili was just okay...but this is coming from an "un-chili fan".
