"A house feels warm and cozy with a big pot of chili simmering on the stove. And while most of us are used to the classic recipe, there’s nothing wrong with upping our chili game! This Moroccan Beef Chili is filled with vibrant warming spices, herbs, chick peas and this recipe with Tuttorosso Tomatoes will be on repeat all winter long.
And of course I always use the best quality canned tomato products, which in my opinion are Tuttorosso.
They use sustainably produced vine ripened tomatoes. They are NON-GMO and use NON-BPA lined cans.... and oh yea, they are the tomatoes my Grandma used."
