Chico's Chili Beans - Mild (also available in Hot)

Typically, chili is a dish made with beans, or meat, or a combination of both. The variations are endless - there are as many as there are beans and cuts of meat.
We created our delicious chili (available in mild and Hot!) using a combination of red beans and pinto beans. Our package provides you with all the herbs, spices and garnish you'll need for a complete pot of delectable chili!
Although this is the mild variation of our chili remember that since it is made in Arizona there is a bit of a bite! The heat factor on a scale of 1 (mild) to 10 (HOT!) is a 6. For Chili Con Carne, add 1/2 pound of your favorite lean beef, elk or venison.

Black Bean Soup 

The subtle flavor of a mole made from cocoa, real sun dried tomatoes and New Mexico chiles make for the legendary taste. For centuries, cultures from South and Central America, the Yucatan, Mexico and Cuba all have had their versions of black bean dishes. Not to be outdone, we offer what we think measures up. Cocoa is integral - not a lot, just enough for people to ask 'What is it I taste in there?' We've embellished it further with sun dried tomatoes and crushed New Mexico red chiles.

Try this rich soup as your main dish - simply cook down to desired consistency. Serve with rice. Or, try using in tostados and burritos - we tell you how in our product information

Carlotta's Enchilada Sauce
True enchilada sauce is made from pure chiles and has no tomatoes. We are the first to admit that our Carlotta's, which has a tomato base, is not actually true but it is GOOD! Its main function, of course, is for the ever-popular enchiladas - but it also serves well as a dip or topping as well, either hot or cold. Its flavor is quite unique and it cries for cheese - Colby or Monterey Jack is recommended.
Once you have the hang of assembling enchiladas, it's a real crowd pleaser. A recipe for an easy and fast enchilada casserole is included on the inside label of our CARLOTTA'S ENCHILADA SAUCE. For a colorful companion, serve along with our TRADITIONAL MEXICAN RICE and one of our bean dishes
