This chili is SO good!! I added an extra teaspoon of flour and extra teaspoon of cumin and another 5 ounces of green chili. This is my new favorite!

They take a little more time but its worth it. Also, I add some habanero to the salsa for some extra kick. I always make extra because its so good the next day.
