Here are some of my Chili facts
 |
Habanera's, red Chili's and
Jalapenos have been ground into powder to bring those mundane bowls of your friend's chili
back to life. |
| Salsa is made, canned in Ball jars,
now nicely aged to perfection. |
|
If you can find "baked" chips,
then Salsa and Chips are a great "no fat" snack that's healthy for you.
|
| Always keep the chili hot - it will
fire you up during these cool Fall Weekends. |
|

Then a big smile  will beak out on your face |
