    This is a very family friendly chili. The kids don't have to worry that it is too spicy and yet the flavor is still there. The one change that I make is substituting "Ranch Style" chili beans(undrained) instead of the kidney beans. It brings up the spice level just enough for my kids without going too far.

    in reply to Mswings; the recipe calls for red pepper sauce, which for a milder taste you can use Lousianna Hot Sauce or Frank's Hot Sauce or similar brands, for a little more heat you can use Tobasco Sauce. I hope this helps.
