If it’s autumn, it means only one thing to me - spicy, filling, hot comfort foods, among which I would highlight chili con carne especially. It is very easy to make, as almost everyone has a pair of canned beans, sweet corn and tomato sauce at home. Really, all you might need freshly is meat. And if you want to make it in a vegetarian version, feel free to use any vegetables or even a few extra canned chickpeas. But grated pumpkin or zucchini can also be a perfect solution. I hope you give it a try and everyone will like it.

when do we add the beans? Are the beans really needed, would it still be good without the beans?
