Warm Up on National Chili Day with These Delicious Meal and Snack Ideas

In honor of National Chili Day, celebrate with one of these creative dishes that use chili in classic and non-traditional ways. For example, a rise in vegan and vegetarian lifestyles has lead to the popularity of meat-free chili options.

Other dishes simply make use of chili butter, powder, chili cheese and chili sauce to enhance flavor. For example, the latest meal option from Burger King is a flame-grilled hot dog topped with chili cheese. Additionally, a new dish titled 'Voodoo Fries' from Red Robbin is spicy and topped with "bacon, queso, fried jalapenos and a dash of taste bud-tingling ghost chili sauce."

With so many ways to celebrate National Chili Day -- LiveStrong.com recently posted a 'Mexican Black Bean and Avocado Oatmeal' recipe, which gives a classic dish an exciting twist -- foodies can satisfy both savory and sweet cravings with these tasty meal ideas.
