Few things are better than curling up on a couch on a cold fall or winter day and watching some football with a bowl full of chili.  Even better, a healthy chili that you can eat bowls of with zero guilt!  My go to chili recipe is great and hearty as a stand alone or also great served with fresh cornbread or chips.
