This recipe has appeared on my menus once a month for more than 40 years---it's never failed to please. I've also turned it into a soup by adding a can of beef broth. - Marie Posavec, Berwyn, Illinois

This was a "hit" with my family of 8. We didn't have green peppers nor the hot chili beans. I used two cans of hot chili and omitted the chili seasoning. As it looked very thick I added a can of beef broth. It turned out excellent.

Not so great.....too thick and not saucy or sweet enough. Just not my idea of chili mac.

I used kidney beans instead of chili beans, and condensed tomato soup instead of the tomato sauce. It turned out great for us too!

This was a great recipe. I altered it a bit for our taste- we didn't use the green peppers, we used mild chili beans instead of hot, and I added 1 can of diced tomatoes to it. It turned out great! Also, when it was done we topped with some cheddar cheese. For us, it fed about 7-9 people (each having a small bowl full). I bet I'll be making this again! Maybe with an extra box of elbow macaroni next time.
