Hi Kate!! Yeah all this "chilly" weather (sorry couldn't help myself! ) really triggered my chili craving. Hit the spot, too. I *really* couldn't believe how much like "normal" (tomato-y) chili it tasted!
I looove beans and I can never decide what kind I want to buy so I always buy those big cans of no-name (Smart Choice I think?) mixed beans you see in the grocery store - it has kidney beans, navy beans, chick peas and a bunch of others. That's what I used here and it was great If you were only going to go with one kind though I'd say kidney, they're kind of like the "chili bean."
Let me know if you venture out to try it! I had it spread over a nice big baked potato, and then again for lunch the next day (and the next day!) with toast. You could also do white rice if you were feeling like a grains kick.
