❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

We love how versatile this recipe is and how quickly it comes together. It’s really great on a cold day and perfect for tailgating or camping. It’s such a hearty dish and you can make it as spicy as you like. If there are ingredients you are not a huge fan of simply switch them up!

SWAPS & ADDITIONS

If you like to add lots of spice to this dish, you can use hot Rotel tomatoes and hot chili beans. You can also make this with ground turkey if you like. We also like to add sour cream to this when we serve it.

⭐TIP

You can easily make up the chili mixture and add a scoop to small bags of Fritos for a walking chili pie. Perfect for any football game or outdoor gathering. Just keep the mixture warm in a crock pot.

You can also make this a dip with the Frito scoops! Such a versatile dish.
