Fall Food

I am so sorry it has been so long since my last entry. Between taking care of my life and spraines ankel, ouch, it has been a long week or more. Today is Wednesday, and that means cooking class day.

Since it is a nice windy, chilly fall day, I thought I would suprise the family with chili for supper. I was thinking about it last night and trying to decided how I was going to make it. I have made it several ways, and everyone has their own. Look through a cook book, and you will find beef, chicken, pork, vegetarian, hot, mild, bean, no bean, and the list goes on. I have even seen a reciepe for carribean chili with pineapple in it.

Any way, this is the recipe I decided on:

2 lb. hamburger
2 cans tomatoes with peppers
1 can tomatoes with out peppers
1 large or 2 small cans chili beans
1 can black beans rinsed
onion
garlic
dried cilantro
beef broth
chili powder

Throw all in crock pot and turn on low. If making in the afternoon, on high, and forget about it until ready to eat and house/apartment etc. smells like soup.

Enjoy.
