Low Carb Texas Chili

Yes, I've joined the masses doing low carb. But I'm eating healthy and I love it. And in my search for low carb food, I wanted chili. And on a Chili Database site (which I HIGHLY recommend checking out!) I found a low carb version. And it is gooood. Like really good. My one complaint - it's not as thick as I normally like (need to order Thick and Thin/Not Starch).  Oh, and I added a little bit of chopped stewed tomatoes. So add starch or a thickener of your choice. But this stuff is great, little bit of sour cream and cheddar, and you're set.
