Since I'm from Cincinnati this is one of my favorite recipes. Nothing beats going to Skyline and eating in but this definitely works in a pinch. And for those out of towners.. packets fit much better in a suitcase/mailed as apposed to the cans! Plus you can make a big batch for parties or freeze for later cravings.
The ingredients are on the packet if you forget.
Cincinnati Recipe Chili
One Cincinnati Recipe Packet (Don't get the Gold Star one, its not as good)
One 6 oz can tomato paste
One to two pounds ground beef
Six cups of water
And of course the secret ingredients...
Extra Chili Powder and Cinnamon
Add as little or as much as you like.
If you are calorie conscience as I am:
One cup of chili
Two tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese
Two tablespoons onions
Three saltine crackers
=300 calories
If you make it a three way
Add one cup spaghetti
=500 calories
TEAM SKYLINE!
