A spicy, highly seasoned food that may appear similar to a hearty soup at times. Chili is typically made with ground turkey, beef or pork, kidney beans, tomatoes, chiles, and seasonings all cooked in the broth of meat included in the Chili. Available in almost every food store, Chili is made with or without beans and with or without meat. It is a versatile food that is often served not only as a main dish but also as a topping for hot dogs, breads, baked potatoes, eggs, egg omelets, and appetizer dips with melted cheese.
