Kid-friendly chicken chili with ground chicken, bell peppers, tomatoes, mixed vegetables, and alphabet pasta: mild, hearty, ready in 45 minutes for picky eaters.

READY

45 min

Brown ground chicken with chopped onions and bell peppers, then stir in water, tomato sauce, stewed tomatoes, and chili powder for a mild tomato base.

Bring it to a boil, add frozen mixed vegetables and alphabet pasta, then simmer twenty minutes until the pasta’s tender and flavors meld.

It’s chili designed for kids: mild spicing, fun pasta shapes, and plenty of vegetables hidden in every spoonful.

Serves a crowd of hungry little ones (or not-so-little ones who still love alphabet soup vibes).

Pro Tips

  • Use ground chicken for leaner protein that’s milder than beef for sensitive palates
  • Alphabet pasta makes it fun for kids and cooks directly in the chili
  • Adjust chili powder to taste; start with less for very young eaters
