Buffalo Cheddar Cornbread Chili Pie

Traditional cornbread chili pie is kicked up a notch in this downright delicious version of the dish made with buffalo sauce and cheddar cheese!

Say hello to the ultimate comfort food recipe! Warm flavorful chili with buffalo sauce, paired with light fluffy cornbread with cheddar cheese, what in the world could be better than that? Nothing, I tell you, nothing!

This was one of the last recipes I made in our apartment before moving into the new house. I was so excited to come home after working on the house all day to leftovers of this dish.

Who gets excited about leftovers?! Someone that has this Buffalo Cheddar Cornbread Chili Pie as leftovers, that’s who!

You can easily prep this dish over the weekend or on a weekday morning. Pop it in the fridge, then bake it in the evening for dinner.

All it takes is whipping up a little buffalo chili on the stovetop, then mixing up some cornbread to go on top. Quick bake in the oven and dinner is served!

This is definitely one of my new favorite meals! It meets all my qualifications for “favorite status”.

• It’s easy to make!
• Includes buffalo sauce (the best!)
• Includes cheese (what’s life without cheese?!)
• My mouth waters just thinking about it!
