Recipe 25/52 for my 30 before 30 list. I am making and blogging about one new recipe a week. This week I am sharing a new Dr Pepper TEN Chili recipe. This is so sweet, savory and spicy. Delicious!
This chili passed the husband test. Kenny really enjoyed it, and he is not a huge Dr Pepper fan. The Dr Pepper TEN doesn’t overpower the dish at all but gives it a little sweetness.

Dr Pepper has been my #1 soda for as long as I can remember. The only thing I do not like is all the calories. Well, Dr Pepper TEN solves that for me. It only has 10 calories per serving, but still taste like the real thing.
