What tastes better and pleases more palates on Game Day than chili - a dish as synonymous with the Super Bowl as turkey is with Thanksgiving.
Chili is the perfect companion for football – easy to eat, and serves a crowd. Few dishes are as deeply satisfying and there is a chili to please every palate. We root for our favorite teams during the big game, and we root for our favorite bowl of chili, arguing the merits of chicken, vegetarian, pork with green chilis, beef & bean preparations or hot & spice vs mild.
In the Super Bowl of chili, this easy vegetarian approach comes together quickly but scores a major flavor payoff. Bursting with tastes including fruity raisins, crunchy cashews, colorful black and cannelloni beans paired with poblano peppers. All around filled with guilty pleasure.
So pull up a steaming bowl and enjoy this chili along with the big game.
