Disclosure: I’ve partnered with Hormel Foods as part of the Hormel Foods Extended Family Blogger Program. Throughout the year I’ll be receiving product, coupons, giveaways and promotions. However, no payment was given or expected for posting about the program, and as always, all opinions given here are fully my own.

October has been declared National Chili Month. Prior to 1935, chili was popular only in the Southern, Southwestern and Western regions of the United States. Hormel Foods is responsible for introducing chili to the Midwest as well as introducing new, unique ways to eat and enjoy chili.

While it is popular to eat chili in a bowl, most prefer to use it as a topping on hot dogs, chips and so much more. I am not big on eating it by the bowl, but love a chili cheese dogs, or fries.

To celebrate we made our favorites Chili Cheese dogs and fries, While my husband chose to go for a chili dip.

We are still making the most of National Chili month and making the most out of the chili we have with all the fun Hormel Recipes.
