Don't be chilly - warm up with a chili

Some other things to do with chili:

Jacket Potato Chili Salad: Split open a baked potato and pile on the chili of your choice. Top with shredded lettuce (iceberg is best), some chopped tomatoes and grated Cheddar cheese.

Chili Stroganoff: Stir about 150ml soured cream or crème fraiche into the Texas chili and serve on buttered noodles.

Chili Burrito Wraps: Spoon some chili onto the base of a tortilla wrap, sprinkle with some grated cheese - cheddar is best - and roll up in a sheet of cling film or foil. Great cold in a packed lunch. Also works with pitta bread.

Chili Egg Tortilla: Grill a tortilla wrap till warm and lightly golden, spoon over some hot chili and top with a fried egg. You can substitute the tortilla for plain toast.

Veggie Chili Dip: Blend some of the vegetarian chili in a food processor and use as a dip for raw vegetables or tortilla chips.

Chili Tacos: Use in place of mince in a taco shell and dress with shredded lettuce and tomato and avocado salsa.
