Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

tip 1
Spoon the hot Chili over baked russet or sweet potatoes for a big one-dish meal. Sour cream, chopped chives and crumbled bacon all add up to a loaded chili baked potato supper.
tip 2
Use this Chili recipe to make Chili Macaroni: spoon the homemade Chili over hot cooked macaroni or fusilli. Top with lots of finely chopped red onion, shredded Colby-Jack cheese and fresh cilantro leaves.
tip 3
Try swapping the ground beef in this classic Chili for some ground pork, chicken or turkey.
tip 4
Looking for ways to enhance the basic chili powder? Add a healthy shake of chipotle chili powder (smoked ripe jalapeńos). For a smokier edge, try a generous pinch of ground coriander, cinnamon or allspice.
