Score Big With Game Day Chili
(NAPSA) - As temperatures cool down and rivalries heat up, game day get-togethers require a menu as big and bold as the players. Chili is a fan favorite that's easy to prepare and can be made ahead of time. In fact, chili tastes better after it sits for a few hours because the flavors have time to mingle.
Game Day Chili is an excellent addition to your menu. This mouthwatering recipe combines traditional Southwestern ingredients such as red kidney beans, ground beef, tomatoes and corn, with a healthy splash of original Tabasco(r) brand pepper sauce that makes this a victory both sides can celebrate.
