Simple to make but so delicious! I did not use the mild chili seasoning mix I used the regular. We like our chili spicy. Thank you Charmie

I think this is great and my absolute favorite thing about it is it's "Simple"!!! I loved the hint of cinnamon while I was eating it. I think this would be terrific over rice! I would even like a dollop of sour cream. Thanks Charmie!

This recipe intrigued me although I was not sure it would go over well in my family. But I was definitely wrong as everone loved this dish. The cinnamon gives this chili a really different yet delicious and serving it over pasta with a dollop of sour cream on top made it a real delight. From the time I got home from work and pulled frozen ground beef out to dinner on the table was 35 minutes so this recipe is a keeper for sure!!

Super easy meal to get on the table quick! I loved the cinnamon, my husband did not. I will make again and probably skip the cinnamon although I know a true Cincinnati Chili would have it. We served it over spaghetti noodles and topped with cheese and green onions. Yummy and filling. Thanks Charmie!
