Chelsey’s Chili is a hearty, comforting meal that’s packed with flavor and easy to prepare. Using canned chili as a rich, savory base saves time while delivering bold seasoning. Adding kidney beans boosts fiber and plant-based protein, making the dish more filling and nutritious. Mixed vegetables and sweet yellow corn bring color, texture, and extra vitamins, while chunky tomatoes with green chili add a subtle kick and depth of flavor. Topped with shredded cheddar cheese, this chili becomes creamy and satisfying—perfect for busy weeknights, meal prep, or feeding a crowd with minimal effort.
