Tips: This was a wonderful chili mac dinner and my whole family loved it! My 3-year old didn't even stop to pick out the onions or peppers. (She must have been really hungry.) Everyone had seconds and leftovers for lunch the next day. Check out Kitchen Stewardship for more One Skillet Recipes that are kid & husband-approved.
