Wendys Copycat Chili Recipe

Wendys Copycat Chili Recipe is the perfect dinner for a cold winter night!

This make at home copy cat recipe is easy to put together and super filling. The perfect meal on these crazy cold Spokane nights. I am not sure how you are feeling about winter but I am already on a countdown to spring……dreaming of tulips, daffodils, green grass and leaves on the trees. OK Enough warm weather dreaming.

At least the chilly weather is perfect for crock pot recipes, chili and snack food!

This recipe can easily be spiced up a bit if you like spicier chili!
