The last time I wrote about serving food in jars, I was asked to keep the ideas coming. With the Super Bowl only a few days away, I thought it might be fun to add a twist to my traditional chili and cornbread recipe. It’s great for the big game day, weekend entertaining or even regular weeknight dinners.
The assembly couldn’t be easier, which makes them a perfect option for entertaining. Make the chili in advance and scoop it into the jars. Then, assemble the cornbread topping, pour it on top of the chili and bake it just before serving. The time in the oven will ensure the chili is warmed through evenly, and the glass vessels will keep your mess to a minimum.
Baking time for the cornbread will depend on the size of jar you use. Large 500 ml jars make a ‘man size’ serving, but small 125 ml jars are the perfect addition to a buffet filled with other foods, or even as an appetizer before the main course is served.
Tell us, do you like to do food in jars? If so, what’s your favourite meal to serve this way?
Any of these chili recipes would work well for this idea:
