Healthier Boilermaker Tailgate Chili
When it comes to tailgating, there's nothing quite like a hearty and delicious chili to warm up the crowd before the big game. However, traditional chili recipes can often be loaded with unhealthy ingredients like fatty meats, excessive amounts of cheese, and high-sodium canned beans. That's why we've created a Healthier Boilermaker Tailgate Chili that still delivers on flavor and satisfaction, but with a healthier twist.
