Amazing Chili!

Ok, so I said the other day, that I had a recipe that I really wanted to share with you guys, and I'm going to do just that today!
When I was prepping for my plastic surgery, I knew that it would be a long recovery, and that I wouldnt be able to do things like cooking and cleaning for a while. This was a nice prospect, I must admit, but the thought of having to rely on my husband to do the cooking was not a pleasant one. I set about the daunting task of cooking tons of food and freezing it, so that way all my husband would have to do, would be defrost it, and heat it up!
One of the recipes that I stumbled upon happened to be for a Chili, claiming to be the best that I would ever taste. As we gastric bypassers know, Chili is an amazing source of protein, and probably one of the best foods that we can eat. I decided that I had to give the recipe a try, and much to my surprise it WAS the best Chili I'd ever tasted!!
Here is the recipe:

INGREDIENTS:



DIRECTIONS:

 

  1. Heat oil.
  2. Cook onions, garlic and meat until brown.
  3. Add tomatoes, beer, coffee, tomato paste and beef broth.
  4. Add spices Stir in 2 cans of kidney beans and peppers.
  5. Reduce heat and simmer for 1 1/2 hours.
  6. Add 2 remaining cans of kidney beans and simmer for another 30 minutes.


If you want to see the reviews, and some photos you can find it here:


If you make it, I hope you enjoy it! If you look at the calorie count for the Chili at the link above, dont freak out! It does not really have that many calories, and the servings are HUGE! I would probably half the nutritional, to get the correct amount. 
I'd love to hear what you guys think of the recipe when you try it! Did you like it? Do you have a recipe for chili that you think can beat this?
