Is It Spaghetti Or Chili… Or Both?

I can hardly ever get my kids to eat anything besides spaghetti. I wanted to try something new and this was a huge hit. They didn’t even realize that I put all the extras in there…but my husband and I did and it was fabulous. From now on, this is the chili that I will make at home. When we can get a recipe that we all agree on, that’s one that I hold on to forever! Check out what they are saying about this recipe over at My Recipes:
