Healthy Cincinnati-Style Chili
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 35 min. Cook: 6 hours
YIELD: 10 servings.
My husband had this type of chili when visiting a friend in Ohio and was thrilled when I made it at home. Serving it with spaghetti, cheese, onions and beans makes it what Cincinnatians call five-way. —Tari Ambler, Shorewood, Illinois
