I go vegan, with beans and soy crumbles (Nutrela, from the Indian grocery) to give it texture and more protein. I also make three different kinds: green (cannellini/Great Northern beans), mole (kidney/pinto beans), and (imitation) Texas Roadhouse (kidney) (though I suspect when I have used up my current TR blend of spices, I will retire that one). ObSF: My mole chili recipe was modified from the one LoneStarCon II published. -- Evelyn C. Leeper, http://leepers.us/evelyn Don't ever save anything for a special occasion.
