My daughter as a young child is exposed with my  passion and that is constantly I am on a research for what is good and new that they will love to eat.I remember her seated in her  high chair while watching my activities in the kitchen.She started schooling and she would give me handwritten recipes,she also does her own research too.This recipe came into my kitchen because of her.She told me to try cook Chili con Carne because she thinks its delicious and yes it is.she's damned right!But I dont remember the exact recipe anymore because I change,add this,add that etc.We also eat this with you know what,Rice!another way is with hotdog and bread with cheese and tomatoes on top;with crunchy shell tacos of course:its a Filipino favorite too;with triangle tacos:bake it with chili con carne and cheese on top(oh wow!) and the most exciting part I bake it  wrapped with tortilla topped with cheesy cream sauce.
