Chili-Con-Carne---Print

Turkey

Chili Con Carne is a family dish passed down for many generations. My Mother leaned how from my Dad's Mother and of course I learned from my Mother. It is truly a dish of my youth and comfort. Chili with meat and beans are traditional in many cultures, Italians included. My Grandmother was an exceptional cook and as a boy I remember so many of her wonderful dishes. This one comes to life from both my Grandmother and my Mother.

The average con carne dish starts out at over 650 mg's and I have seen as high as 2,200 mg's of sodium. Our family recipe is 195 mg's of sodium with Mom's Great Aroma & Flavor...
