Pepperoni Pizza Chili is marvelous! This fantastic chili recipe has an Italian flair with the taste of pepperoni pizza added to the mix! Pepperoni, Italian seasonings and mozzarella cheese add fantastic flavor to this wonderful Tex-Mex recipe. It's great with cornbread dunked in it! Terrific for tailgating parties as well as week-night or company dinners.
