1/2 c homemade canned chunky salsa from the garden.. if you do not have that use mild CHUNKY salsa (I use W-mt great value Brand it is good)
Add a few drops or so of Texas Pete hot sauce (use to your own taste I really don’t measure)
add a handful or two of rigatoni and or Penne Noodles to the sauces.. stir them down so they are covered and bring to a boil.. then turn down heat put on lid and time it for about 17 minutes with lid
Let simmer till beans and noodles are tender
Serve with Shredded cheddar cheese on top of hot chili and noodles when serving
