      I’m from Central PA where Chicken corn soup is a staple. My grandfather was a corn farmer when I was growing up, so we ate it quite often.

      Thanks for the linky.

      I love adding corn to my chili. It creates a nice balance between sweet and hot. I’m linking up my Baked chicken Parmesan. I save money by repurposing leftover spaghetti sauce and using homemade croutons.

      I made this not too long ago. It was like a soup than a chili, but it was still good.

      If you prefer a thicker consistency rather than a ‘soupy’ one, here’s what I did:
      Do not add the 3-4 cups of water. Eliminate that all together.
      Add 1’can tomato paste and 1/2 cup BBQ sauce. (BBQ sauce makes chili SO much better!)

        I apologize, that should say 1 can of tomato sauce. Not paste!

      How would you make this for 5.00? Not sure but I think the ingredients would cost me more than 5.00. I could be wrong though.

      This doesn’t say how long to cook it for.
