tex mex chili and cornbread waffles
Next time you grill out or grill in, throw on a few extra pieces of steak to use for another day. You are not limited to just steak; chicken, pork, roast, turkey would also work great. This is a drier version of chili that I like to serve over cornbread waffles. Hope you enjoy!
