SO HOW'D IT GO?
I'm coming up on a vegetarian potluck in my area, am anxious to try this recipe. Thanks to those who posted and chimed in with modifications.
I need to try this too.....I used to LOVE Skyline Chili!
It does seem like the author left out some spices at the end
I haven't tried this one yet, but it looks great! I am originally from Cincinnati and I cannot WAIT to try this one out on my family! Go XU!
This is the best veg version of Cincinnati chili I've had yet. The 2nd time making it, I added 1/2 tsp of ground cloves, 1/2 tsp of allspice, and 1 tsp of chocolate. And then mixed in 2 tbsp of balsamic vinegar.
