Tips and Swap Ideas
Meat Options: Ground turkey or chicken is a great substitute for beef if you're looking to lighten things up. You can also use sausage for a richer flavor.
Beans: Mix and match different types of beans based on what you have in the pantry. Pinto beans, navy beans, or chickpeas are great alternatives.
Spice it Up: Add some chopped jalapeños or hot sauce if you like your chili with extra heat. You can also increase the chili powder for more kick.
Toppings: Chili is made even better with the right toppings! Try sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped green onions, cilantro, or crushed tortilla chips.
Vegetarian/Plant-Based: For a vegetarian version, just add more beans or substitute with lentils, tofu, or tempeh for added protein. You can also skip the broth and use a vegetable-based option.
