Chili for the Choir Basically, make your favorite chili recipe, but substitute french-cut green beans for the usual chili beans or kidney beans. I cook them half-way in the microwave and add them to the batch toward the end of cooking, so they aren't overcooked. Just before serving, wet some chili powder and some cocoa powder (not cocoa mix) and stir them into the batch. For a family-size batch, maybe 1.5 tsp chili powder and 1 tbsp cocoa. Jiffy corn muffins make a good side dish.
