Everyday

Chili con carne is a hearty Tex-Mex stew featuring slow-cooked beef, chili peppers, and spices like cumin and garlic powder. This protein-rich dish often includes beans for added fiber, though traditional recipes may omit them. While homemade versions allow for ingredient control, commercial preparations frequently contain elevated sodium levels, making label scrutiny essential for dietary tracking.
