We have a mushroom allergy in the family. What would you recommend to sub for the cream of mushroom soup?
Hey Ellen, not a problem. Cream of chicken would be a great substitute for the cream of mushroom. Enjoy!
I’m going to assume I drain the northern and pinto beans….
Hi Amie! Yes, drain the beans. I hope you enjoy the recipe!
I love a good healthy chili. This one is delicious too!
I’m always wondering what veggies could go in chili….this was delish! And who would have thought the cream of mushroom would make such a rich difference. Loved it!
This is my new favorite recipe! I made it yesterday and my whole family loved it!
