\"Chilli<\/a>Chili n\u2019 Cheese Cornbread Muffins<\/strong><\/p>\n

This November all I want to do is curl up by the fireplace with a good book, cozy sweater, and some comfort food \u2013 specifically cornbread.<\/p>\n

These little cornbread muffins are full of cheesy goodness and pack a punch with slow-cooked chili.<\/p>\n

So get ready to turn the heat right up with these Chili n\u2019 cheese cornbread muffins<\/strong>. I like to start with quality ingredients made locally, like creamy Canadian Provolone cheese<\/strong>, which tastes like heaven when melted into these muffins.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s best washed down with a fresh and crisp Niagara white wine, like the Konzelmann Estate Winery Pinot Blanc<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n
