National Corn Chip Day | Good Ol' Chili

National Corn Chip Day | Good Ol’ Chili

If I waited until the cold days of the year to eat chili, I could count on one hand how many times I’d enjoy it. Instead, chili is a regular occurrence in our house, even in the hottest of hot days in the middle of summer.

For National Corn Chip Day, I really had zero idea of what to make. I thought about crumbling the corn chips and making them into some sort of pie crust?! Then, my friend Brooke told me that her family enjoys corn chips with their chili and then she shared her mom’s recipe with me, and the rest is history. I’m not too sure that I can eat chili without corn chips again.

This chili is made with ground beef, but I’m sure ground turkey and ground chicken would be fantastic alternatives. It’s more of a traditional chili which are my favorites. And, of course, chili is awesome if only because it’s a one-pot meal and can simmer without being touched for hours on end. And then it makes the entire house smell so yummy which, if you have been reading for any length of time, you know I love.

Enjoy the corn chip crunch. 😉

I always put corn chips on my chili! So much better than tortilla chips in my opinion! I think Frito Lay is missing out on making a corn chip bowl (like the taco shell bowls). Yet I shudder to think of those fat grams!
