This is how I beat the cold, with a nice warm bowl of Mexican Chili served with a handful of corn chips. It’s a delicious, simple recipe that will warm you from your head to your toes.
Is it as cold where you are as it is here? We just got hit with a huge snow storm and no matter how hard I try I can’t seem to get warm. All I want to do is bury myself in a pile of blankets and hide out until spring. How long is it til’ spring?
When it’s this cold out the last thing I want to do is leave the warmth and comfort of my toasty blankets, but my family does need to eat.
To avoid abandoning my nice, warm sanctuary for to long I like to make quick meals that warm you to the bone and chili always does the trick.
