Naturally Strong Chili~Vegetarian Chili

Fitness phenom of Fairhope Alabama, Nonie Taul, hasn’t always been this fit. It was a home-based concern with her daughters allergy that started this Mom on the road to healthier eating and fitness. She asked me to help her create a high protein chili for the Super Bowl in this video and we had a super time discussing her road to success and life in general! This was fun!
