CLASSIC CHILI MIX

Classic Chili Mix image

Enjoy this full-flavored chili seasoning that'll heat up your holiday gift-giving. The mix is on the mild side, which is nice for those who aren't partial to extra-spicy food. To raise the "temperature," just add more chili powder. -Bernice Morris, Marshfield, Missouri
