As you all know by now, my husband loves beef, and especially chili food! This Wendy’s chili is so delicious! Yes it takes time to cook, but it’s worth every minute. Check it out.
Wendy’s Chili Copycat Made With Kidney Beans, Onions, Chilis, Bell Peppers And Tomatoes With A Spicy Chili Powder And Cumin Spices. The Perfect Copycat!
Wendy’s Chili is a no brainer now that the weather is cooling down in a hurry. This copycat recipe is actually so spot on that when I tested it on an unsuspecting family member who loves it she replied, “If you got Wendy’s where is my FROSTY!!”
Sadly, I had not made a Wendy’s Frosty for her, but the chili is in fact a very spot-on copycat. Plus I love serving it with my Jalapeno Popper Cornbread Muffins.
Wendy’s Chili seems like it would be a tough recipe to make, but honestly the most difficult part is waiting for it to cook low and slow.
