Chili 1 article
Chili is a thick, seasoned stew built around chile flavor, tomatoes, meat, beans, or plant-based combinations, with cumin and chili powder common in many American-style versions. For chili, the broth or sauce, protein source, vegetables, grains or starches, added fat, and portion size determine how the dish fits into a meal. Packaged and restaurant chili versions can differ sharply from home-cooked examples in sodium, fiber, protein, and energy density, so recipe details matter more than the soup, stew, or curry label alone.
