With Winter finally upon us (booooo!), it always feels good to have warm hearty food in my belly! One of my favorite winter meals is CHILI! YUM! Chili is practically a staple in my household. When I decided to learn a healthier lifestyle, something obviously had to be done with chili. Now, I am definitely not a cook, but I can make chili. :) My fiancé is also an A-MAZE-ING cook!
