Game Day Vegetarian Chili and Krusteaz Cornbread Muffin Recipe is a sponsored post
My husband desperately wanted a son. Of course he never admitted it- and once we had our daughter he even said he couldn’t see himself as a father to anyone but a girl. But that’s the thing about parenthood- it stretches your heart in ways that are hard to articulate. It changes your perception of who you are and all the preconceived notions you had about yourself.
Of course when we had our son- I know my husband was secretly expecting a sidekick in all things sports. Unfortunately for my husband- my son showed ZERO interest in anything even mildly sports-related. We never pushed or prodded him and indulged his interests in comics, drawing and piano while my husband was happily resigned to watching Sunday football on his own. But when my son turned seven – and he began to HIT THE BALL instead of running away from it while playing his little league team- he started to ask my husband questions about his favorite teams. His interest began quite organically-and after a summer of playing touch football and basketball – his love of sports was cemented. (OF COURSE MY HUSBAND COULD NOT BE HAPPIER to finally have a sports buddy).
And this love of sports extends to spectator sports- and usually on a Sunday my husband and son can be found side by side glued to each other and the FOOTBALL GAME DU JOUR! And this is where my trusty go to Game Day Vegetarian Chili and Krusteaz Cornbread Muffin Recipe comes to the rescue and help me at the very least get in some face time with them in between their breaks from watching the game! And yes I’ve occasionally been known to just pull up a chair and a plate of Vegetarian Chili and a Krusteaz Cornbread Muffin and join them!

Mmmm Chili sounds nice – that is, if it were a bit colder here in LA! Hopefully soon!
Yes please! We love having chili and cornbread when it is cold out. This sounds delicious. I’ve never had vegetarian chili before.
We make chili a lot in our house and I wouldn’t even think about serving it without cornbread or corn muffins. And obviously I only use Krusteaz because it’s the best!
Chili is our go to during the winter months, and these corn muffins would be a great pairing.This looks delicious.
What an awesome mix! I’ve used Krusteaz mixes before and like the brand. We’ll have to try these next! This looks like a really great meal for cood days.
The wind is blowing and it is cold. Chili and this cornbread sounds perfect for this week
As soon as the temps drop I break out the crock pots and make chili. I’ve never tried Krusteaz corn bread mix before but that honey cornbread sounds delicious
This cornbread mix looks delicious. Along with the chile, what a lovely, comforting meal!
This recipe looks so savory. It would be perfect to make for my family for Thursday night football. Can’t wait ti give it a try.
My husband likes cornbread, but I have never been a fan of the texture. Some of my kids like it, too, so I make it every know and again!
my family would really love this- esp those muffins- ive never been a huge fan but i bet they would love just the texture of it all!
My family loves it when we have cornbread and chili, it is the perfect winter meal! My daughter is vegetarian so we have had to get more creative with meals, this is a new chili for me to try, thank you!
I looooove chili and cornbread together. A perfect fall dish that my whole family eats up. I’ll have to try these muffins!!

Aww the story about the processes your husband has had to go through with your daughter and son is awesome. I am happy that he now has a sports buddy.
These cornbread muffins look so good and so perfect with that delicious vegetarian chili that you made! Yum!
What a great combination! And the perfect fall meal. My kids do a Colonial Day unit in a couple months and literally bring cornbread and fruit for lunch. This would be fun to make.
Cornbread is absolutely my favorite and Krusteaz has the best mixes. I am watching it snow outside right now and would be so happy to have a bowl of that awesome looking chili with cornbread.
