I made up a batch of this delicious chili back in early June. I was trying to clean out more meat from my freezer and additional canned goods from my pantry. This recipe fit the bill and on top of that it was quite tasty. It also reheats wonderfully for lunch menus and leftovers. I used Mexican Stewed Tomatoes along with a spaghetti sauce that included Italian Sausage and garlic. All the flavors came together beautifully, complementing each other rather than one overtaking all the others.
Fall will be upon us soon and Three Meat Chili is a great entree for those cool evenings when you want to take the chill out of the air. It’s great served with any kind of bread, roll or cornbread. I liked it with Tortilla strips, cilantro, avocado, sour cream and Cheddar cheese. If you’re in the mood for a fabulous bowl of chili, give Three Meat Chili a try now!
