Chili
( you'd think I'd make it look pretty, but no I dig right in then take the pic when I'm putting away food :)
Brown in a heavy pan
1lb of your meat choice I used tri tip today and used my cuisinart to grind the meat on pulse a few times after it was browned. iit gives the chili a nice texture. I’ve used ground turkey, turkey sausage, tofu, hamburger, chicken sausage and a combination, even leftover pork roast.
1 diced onion and cook until softened ( I like mine a little carmelized and will add them in with the meat)
Reduce heat to low and add
1 15 oz can beans drained – again I’ve used different kinds like kidney, black and white beans
1 28oz can diced tomatoes with juice
1t crushed red pepper (adjust if you have little one’s)
2-3 cloves chopped garlic– if I don’t have any I’ll put in 2t garlic powder
1 ½ t salt
5t chili powder
2t ground cumin
1t Oregano or 1T fresh Oregano
¼ t cinnamon
Simmer about a half hour and serve with Cotjia cheese or Monterey Jack, a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt. Garnish with Avocado slices. Serves 4
If you have any left over this makes great nacho’s with some chips and cheese heated under the broiler.
