- If your kids prefer their chili bland - now is the time to set some aside!
- Add chili powder. Simmer until potatoes are fully cooked.
Final Comments
If your kids are like mine - they like their chili bland! more like spaghetti sauce than chili. Set some aside for them, before adding the chili powder.
Put one potato or half of a potato on each person's plate. Add butter and/or salt. Then top with chili. This is great served with corn bread! A very filling and satisfying meal!
