In A Food Mood

Still hanging in there with the soup posts. Hope you guys are liking these...

Is chili soup? It's served in a bowl, eaten with a spoon and served in cold weather months. I say that qualifies. This is my own recipe after hodge-podging several different recipes into one. Since I made it up I get to call it whatever I want. I named it after my alma mater. You can name it whatever you want. Serve it with cornbread or over yellow rice or with tortilla chips and shredded cheese. However you serve it, it's good!
