There is a tip we need to tell you about if you do plan on serving your chili in a bread bowl. Be sure to put cheese in the bread bowl before you put the hot chili in it. This will create a protective barrier from the bread so the juices don’t seep through and cause your bread bowl the fail. Works perfectly every time!

Doesn’t that look scrumptious?! You can serve your chili with sour cream, green onions, shredded cheese and maybe even Fritos (my family loves Fritos!). Did you know they now make lower sodium Fritos Corn Chips?! I’ve tried them and they are awesome! No one even noticed the difference! This is the best chili recipe. Hearty, meaty, and a tasty chili recipe the whole family can enjoy.
