When I think of fall one of the first things that comes to mind is a steaming cup of apple cider, made spicy and aromatic with cinnamon sticks, cloves and a hint of nutmeg. But it doesn’t end there.

Now that it is officially fall, and the threat of frost is imminent, it’s time to break out the soup pot. I’m considering a big batch of spicy chili to warm me up on the first cold day. There are so many ways to prepare chili and that’s what I love about it. It can be made with any ...
