Good stuff. I left out cumin, subbed one can of black beans for red and added about 1/2 cup sliced jalapeno's. Spicy hot and delicious.

Looks great! PS: I just got some green & red chili powder and dried red chili peppers from Hatch NM... Do you have any more recipes for these ingredients? What do you suggest for storing the dried red peppers? thanks, Con

I does sound easy and it does sound very good but I would add 1/2 chopped green pepper along with the onion. Along with a little pepper sauce and a pinch or two of sugar....yum
