I'm so excited to share that Brian Baumgartner's new book Seriously Good Chili Cookbook is out today! Also, our Kids Favorite Chili recipe is featured in the cookbook along with 177 of the best chili recipes in the world! This is the Brian that plays 'Kevin Malone' in the show The Office. How awesome is that?! The book features specific types of chili, from Texas and Cincinnati to turkey chili, veggie and regional styles. You can find our Kids Favorite Chili in the Homestyle section of the book and I'm sharing it below to celebrate the launch of this awesome book!

Why Is This The Kids Favorite Chili?

The kids love this chili because it doesn't pack too much heat, only flavor. It only takes 40 minutes to bring this chili to life which makes dinner time much easier. This delicious chili is simple with only 10 ingredients. We enjoy it with chips or on top of hot dogs!

The kids will love this chili because it’s not too spicy and is a hearty dish. Adults, you can always add more chili powder to spice it up. First, cut up the onions. Then open up all the cans of beans and tomatoes. Next, sauté the onions until translucent, about 3 minutes.

How To Make the Kids Favorite Chili?

Next, add in sausage or ground beef with the seasonings and cook through for 12 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and simmer for 20 minutes.
