You could do chili and a little serve yourself bar of fixings (peppers, cheese, sourcream, crackers), with baked potatoes, bread or salad- then have peanuts, pretzels, cheese, grapes or popcorn as the layout snacks.
I like to just have the chili on with a ladel, spoons and bowls near it so that you don't have to get up and serve and the clean up is pretty easy.
