Hormel Chili and Dinty Moore 75th Anniversary Giveaway

From food to flight, 1935 was a year for legends:  Monopoly debuted.  Elvis Presley was born.  And two iconic cans appeared on store shelves: Dinty Moore^® products and Hormel^®chili.

Today, these brands can be found in virtually every pantry in America.  I love having Dinty Moore in my cupboard for when we have company.  

It's so easy to just drop a few cans in the crockpot, add some egg noodles and have a good dinner with very little work!

Here's another easy recipe from a 1976 Dinty Moore package label:

Cowboy Stew (also called Beef Stew Bonanza)

1 (40-ounce) can Dinty Moore® beef stew

3 (15-ounce) cans Hormel® chili with beans

In large pot over medium heat, combine stew and chili.  Heat just until boiling, stirring occasionally.  Serves 10.

To celebrate Dinty Moore and Hormel Chili’s 75th anniversary, they have generously offered up an awesome prize pack! 

The prize pack includes:

· Dinty Moore®/Hormel® Chili 75^th anniversary t-shirt

· 1 can Dinty Moore® Hearty Meals® beef stew

· 1 can Hormel® Chili no beans

· 1 can Hormel® Chili Master™  chili

I just love eating Hormel Chili (the spicy one) with tortilla chips. Sometimes I'll add either cheddar or nacho cheese to it, but it's fine on its own.

We make a dip: layer a pie dish with cream cheese, spread on a can of Hormel Chili (we like it with beans) and sprinkle with cheddar cheese. Microwave until heated and cheese is melted. Yummy!
