I grew up with two kinds of chili, neither a Tex-Mex. Central Ohio Chili and Cincinnati Chili.

Here is the recipe or you can buy the spice packet at Publix. You must offer finely grated cheddar, Kidney beans and raw grated onion and oyster crackers with it ...and of course serve it over angel hair pasta. It is Greek and most of Columbus and Cincinnati was German when I grew up.

Interesting.

We make ours with either mashed potatoes or rice never thought abut using pasta.

Also use ground turkey and pour off excess fat.

Might make a few changes next time we make it.

Thanks for sharing.

Having grown up in New Mexico I love both green and red chile in just about anything. My former brother-in-law farms chile alongside the Rio Grande near a small town named Polvadera (Dustville in English). He sends me a care package every year but as I no longer eat chile regularly I find it way too hot so I mix it in with blander chiles such as the Big Jim grown around Hatch, NM. One thing about hot chile, it burns more going out than it does going in.

My mother moved from MD to NM and she developed her own version of chile stew using hamburger, kidney beans, onions, stewed tomatoes and diced green chiles, a dish I miss. The locals use Pinto beans as they grow there but she preferred red kidney beans.

This is a pretty good recipe. A Spicy New Mexico Green Chile Stew from MJ's Kitchen (https://mjskitchen.com/2013/01/new-mexico-green-chile-stew/)
