Serving Suggestions:
2-Way : spaghetti topped with chili
3-Way : spaghetti topped with chili & ff cheddar cheese
4-Way : spaghetti topped with chili & ff cheddar cheese & chopped onions
5-Way : spaghetti topped with chili & ff cheddar cheese & chopped onions &
pinto beans
Variations:
I've added other vegetables such as zucchini and peppers and mushrooms.
Another topping could be yogurt. Purists demand oyster crackers (warning:
they are not low in fat).
