Harrison’s Simple Skillet Chili

Adapted from one of my favorite food sources, www.allrecipes.com, Harrison insisted on ‘making dinner’ Saturday night, and with just a little time and a little help, he prepped everything, and this chili was ready to eat.  It’s the perfect size too, not a big pot of leftovers, but good for 6 servings.  We give it 4 stars, because everyone loved it, but it was a little too hot for Holly.
