making a big pot of homemade chili with red pinto beans and very lean ground beef, got me thinking if this is good muscle building food or not.

This reminds me of the Sopranos episode where Medow made chili for her and her boyfriend in the middle of the summer (they were living in a tiny little apartment in NY with no A/C). Just found it funny cooking something like that in the middle of summer ~ seems like a winter food. Of course it's fine, depending on what you put in it.

Beef and/or venison, beans, and tomatoes – yes, chili is a highly nutritious and often overlooked choice of cuisine.
Homemade can ensure selection of better quality ingredients.
It's also one of my favorite foods to eat.

agreed i used to make a turkey chili that had a ton of carbs and a good amount of protein with only a little bit of fat.

Yep, you can doctor it anyway you like.
The stuff in the can is probably decent, but I’ll take homemade any day.
Turkey sounds good – gonna have to try that this fall.

Some crushed corn chips and shredded cheese on top. :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P
I like my chili hot as hell, so I always dice up a couple jalapenos into it. It ain't chili if you ain't sweatin'

bouillon, garlic, chopped onion, and 4 cups water. Let simmer low heat.

1/2 lb. batches with
olive oil. Drain and add to simmering spices. Continue until all meat is
done.
