Recipe Notes
You can add chili powder in place of the cayenne pepper, or add more cayenne if you like it spicier. If you like a thicker chili, use less tomato juice. If you have high blood pressure, choose low sodium varieties of all canned items. Chili can be portioned out into individual servings and frozen for an easy lunch.
