Looking for more penny pinched recipes? Here you go!
We're 3 days into the 21 Day Fix (I'm loving the group that's joined me there!), and had to share a quick recipe we tried earlier this week!
My husband loves chili, so I was determined to find a lightened up recipe that he would like. This was perfect (really, so good), and the best part was that we have leftovers to pack for lunches this week.
Here's how to get started . . .Â
