Get warm with Chili!

We’ve all experienced some cold weather and it can be really rough on us. I’ve been trying our several things to stay warm. I bundle when I go outside, I bundle when I’m inside. My heating bill is starting to rise because of this weather. What I realized was that to stay warm you need to start from the inside. I tried this recipe for chili from Allrecipes.com and it was so great! I’m warmer in the cold weather and full!
