Chili In A Jar: an ingenious way to serve them
This is an ingenious way of serving chili – in a glass jar, topped with cornbread.
You can make the chili from scratch, or heat up your favourite type, then add some cornbread mixture to the top of the glass jar, bake in the oven, and it’s done after 25 minutes.
It’s a complete meal in itself, so you don’t have to cook any sides, and you only have the glass jars and cutlery to wash up after eating!
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F/160C fan/gas mark 4.
Make or heat up the chilli on the hob until it’s warmed through.
