A hearty bowl of chili always reminds me of my mom's cooking. While I love this classic recipe, I wanted a faster way to cook the dried beans, so I decided to make it in my pressure cooker. Now we get to enjoy the same from-scratch recipe but in a fraction of the time. —Courtney Stultz, Weir, Kansas
