1. Add veggies - Red bell pepper, green pepper, zucchini, and even corn are great addition to the recipe. 2. Add beans - You'll have more of a "Chili Mac" when you add kidney beans. 3. Add a small dollop of sour cream right before serving. 4. For a little more tomato flavor, add one tablespoon of tomato paste.
