Great question, and YES. For whatever reason, my boys prefer spaghetti or angel hair pasta in this chili, but you could definitely substitute macaroni, small shell, or penne pasta very successfully.
WHY DOES THIS CHILI RECIPE CALL FOR SUGAR AS ONE OF THE INGREDIENTS? THAT SEEMS KIND OF WEIRD.
Actually, it’s not! Tomato products, such as diced or crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, or even tomato juice, are acidic in nature and a pinch of sugar (or a tablespoon as in this recipe) cuts that acidity quite nicely, rounding out all of the flavors in the process. Try it!

When cooler weather sets in, there’s nothing more cozy and comforting than a bowl of chili…..especially when it’s served with a cinnamon roll alongside! If you’re from the Midwest, you already know about this trend, and if you’re not, DO try it. #Easy #SpeedyMeal #WeekNightMeal #Chili #Soup #Spaghetti #GroundBeef
