Cincinnati Bengal Chili Recipe

	Sparow64 / All my dishes 2 years ago From The Tailgating Cookbook, this chili is "unmistakably" from Bengal country because of the pasta on the bottom and the cheddar cheese and chopped onion on top! A savory and sweet chili recipe! Prep:15m Cook:60m Servings:10	Sparow64
