Tips & Variations

Make It Creamy

If you’re in the mood for a richer bowl, swirl in a splash of cream, evaporated milk or even a spoonful of yogurt right before serving. It softens the broth, adds a silky finish and turns this chili into the kind of cozy comfort that feels like it simmered all afternoon.

Add Some Heat

Prefer a little fire in your spoon? Stir in diced jalapeños, crushed red pepper, green chili salsa or your go-to hot sauce. Even a tiny bit of heat lifts the whole bowl and balances the creaminess of the beans.

Extra Veggies

This chili is incredibly flexible. Corn adds sweetness, spinach wilts down beautifully and diced zucchini blends right into the broth. It’s an easy way to boost texture, color and heartiness without adding extra time.

Try a Different Microwave Rice Cup

Minute Basmati Rice is fluffy and aromatic, but you can swap it for whatever cup you love most. Jasmine gives it a gentle fragrance, white rice keeps it classic and brown rice adds a nutty depth. Choose your vibe and make the bowl your own.
