Put a few drops of Beano onto them before you eat. It works. A friend of mine carries a tiny bottle wherever she goes.
Mom mom fixed chili on Christmas Eve. We always have chili and tamales on Christmas Eve. This year she bought some Chili Mix from Neiman Marcus. You just mix the Neiman Marcus Chili Mix with Beef and Blood Mary Mix. It was absolutely some of the best chili that I've ever eaten.
That is the News Years meal for our family, but I have to have the Black Eyed Peas from my side of the family.
Not much of a chili fan but made one yesterday and pretty much followed the first recipe posted and added tostitos salsa HOT chip dip- it was a big hit here.
