I added it to the meat in addition to tomatoes, a splash of water and also red kidney beans and done! Yes, although I am ashamed to confess to it now, I have to confess that I used a shop-bought mix to make that meal in the past. But there is something even more awkward. When that ready to prepare package wasn't readily available anymore, I stopped cooking chili con carne. Why? I reflected then that making it from square one was also complicated which I would certainly never accomplish the same taste.
When I lastly got my courage and also a excellent recipe, as well! I recognized that thanks to cooking it myself, I understood what exactly was in it. And it tasted possibly also much better than the one I used to make. Not surprising that then that it quickly became one of my family's favourite dishes.
Nevertheless, when my child determined to become vegan, I understood I needed to face another challenge. I needed to cook a meal that is based on meat but without the meat. As well as clearly, I needed to make it taste like a genuine thing.
