Cowboy Spaghetti

Darlene
When I saw the ingredients for this recipe, I thought, 'How odd.' Then I remembered when I had visited my aunt in Oklahoma, she had ordered chili and spaghetti at a restaurant. I showed Bethany, and she wanted to try it, so here we are. This is tasty! All the ingredients come together perfectly for a comforting dish to enjoy.
