I made this tonight for dinner. It was delicious. I don't have individual ramekins, so I used a small casserole dish and a jiffy corn muffin mix for the topping. It is definitely going into my fall/winter meal rotation!

I love chili so much. It’s one of my favorite meals ever and it’s fun to try new ways to make it! Don’t you think these would also be really great for a Super Bowl party?

How To Make A Chili Pot Pie

The first thing to do when making this dish is cook the ground beef thoroughly. Drain it and add the beans, chili seasoning and tomato sauce. Easy so far, right?

To make the cornbread, mix the dry ingredients all together in one bowl, and the wet ingredients in a second bowl. Then, add the wet to the dry.

Get four ramekin dishes and spoon into each, one cup of chili and then half a cup of cornbread batter.

Bake for about 25 minutes and if you want, you can top with cheese and sour cream.

This recipe is for four people which is great for most families. If you need to make more, just double up the recipe.

What To Eat With Chili Pot Pie

These are truly perfect on their own since you’re getting both the chili and the cornbread in one dish. However, I really like to serve it with corn on the cob! For a warm after dinner dessert try Caramel Apple Bread Pudding or Hot Chocolate Monkey Bread.

Stay warm!
