In Cincinnati, Ohio, where I’m from, Skyline Chili is one of the most popular, well-loved restaurants to visit. While spaghetti, chili and cheese may be an odd combination for a meal, in Cincinnati, this dish is a classic. Don’t be afraid of the word chili, either – in this recipe it’s more of a sauce.

While Skyline restaurants are only located in Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Florida, you can still buy a can of Skyline Chili online and make it yourself. Whether you’re from the Midwest like me or not, this meal is the perfect comfort food.

Ingredients:

1 can of Skyline Chili

1 serving of any spaghetti

Shredded cheddar cheese

Optional:

Tabasco sauce

½ of a diced onion

Instructions:

Bring a cup of water to a boil and cook your spaghetti until it reaches your desired softness.

When the spaghetti only has a few minutes left, begin cooking the Skyline Chili in a separate pot on medium heat until hot, stirring occasionally.

Drain the cooked spaghetti and plate it, adding the chili and shredded cheese on top.

If desired, add the diced onion and Tabasco sauce.

Mix with a fork and enjoy!
