This was adapted from a very old recipe I used to make quite often. About the only difference is that I left out the kidney beans that were in the original and I didn't top it with onions this time. This is a not-so-authentic version of Skyline Chili. In Cincinnati, they call it "five way chili" because there are five layers - the pasta, the chili, beans, onions and cheese. I served it over Dreamfields spaghetti for my family and I had mine over Zucchini "Pasta".
