Tips
- If you don't like a specific ingredient, simply omit it, unless it's beans.
- You can make this in a pot for a slower cook.
- You can continue to cook it all in the same pot even if you undercook something.
- It's not autism chow if you don't vocal stim the whole time you're making it, otherwise it's just a three bean chili.
