Summary
I love this recipe because it is such a change from traditional chili. In this recipe I use tomatillos, which are available in most areas locally, and have an unusual taste that most people (I know) haven't tried.
This chili is rich, hearty, and very satisfying on cold days. It freezes really well, and please remember to adjust the spices (heat), according to your personal taste.
ENJOY!!
