I made a double batch of this chili for our family Christmas gathering last year. I made it without the beans or masa. Everyone loved it and there were NO leftovers. So easy to make and tasty! I'm making it again today with the masa and the first taste tests are coming back with delicious reviews, again!

Masa is cornmeal with lime added. It is commonly used to make tamales.

My family loves this recipe, but I tweak it some. I add an extra can of kidney beans and more salt. Also I don't drain the tomatoes.

Rachel (United States) says:

This one is a home run for sure! Yum!!
It seems so simple and it is... but the flavor sand consistency are excellent!
I added a spoonful of tomato paste and left out the whole tomatoes.
I added the kidney beans, too.
Seriously delicious.
Side note: I didn't have masa but used a half T corn meal and a half T flour, then mixed that with the water.

Well, all my tomato sauce and what not were gone - my nephew is a chef lol. Hence, I substituted a 15 oz Progresso Cream Tomato for can of tomatoes (delicious - better I think).

I did add red beans and fresh diced tomatoes. Next time, I would like to add corn and bell pepper, yeah.

I did not use 7 tbsp chili powder (glad that I did not), as 3 tbsp is sufficient heat for me. Fast easy, and better than any can of chili sold at the grocery store.

You bet, took me a SNAP to make.

Thanks

Irene
