Like my Tater Tot Casserole, this is a meal I’ve been making for years for my family. I love that it’s a recipe that I usually have all the ingredients for in the pantry (or enough to make it work) and the beans in this recipe can easily be swapped out for ones you have or whatever beans you like best.
This recipe is also so quick and easy to throw together (20-30 mins). Plus it’s done entirely on the stovetop so no need to heat up the house with the oven.
The original recipe called this Cincinnati-Style Chili but we call it Chili Spaghetti. (And yes it has beans, even though my Texan husband would claim it isn’t chili if it has beans.)
