Velveeta makes this Cheesy Chili Creamy and Delicious

What’s the perfect food to serve on a cool Autumn night? Chili of course! And when you’re feeding a group of hungry guests, this is the perfect recipe to reach for.

I found this cheesy chili recipe in a recent magazine and adapted it to fit our needs. It’s a great one-dish meal, and the orange-yellow color from the cheese makes is especially apropos for Halloween parties.

What’s more is you can whip up some“broomstick” bread sticks to serve along side and it all makes a whimsical presentation.

This chili recipe is a great option for game day parties too. Serve it along with tortilla chips for dipping, or as part of a chili bar. It’s rich, and full of flavor, and will become a seasonal favorite.

Let’s start with the “broomstick” bread sticks shall we.
