This is a smoky spicy chili -- there's a lot going on -- and we added even more (shredded pepper jack cheese and some sour cream) and it worked for us. The recipe calls for a can of diced tomatoes and I used fire-roasted diced tomatoes which added to the smokiness.

The recipe calls for topping the chilling with a "salsa" of one diced avocado, 1/2 red onion, and lime juice. We thought the balance was much too heavily weighted on the onion and would simply have preferred diced avocado tossed with some lime juice as there is already plenty of onion in the chili.

Good hearty meal for a cool football Sunday. Corona or Dos Equis to drink.

Recipe is also available online.
