Look good.......it is a little chilly here in AZ, good day for a pot of chili......
We will be there with our cans of Wolf Brand chili . . . as long as the date does not interfere with family stuff.
Agreed. We call it chilibeans. Ain't bad, but is not chili.
All suggestions have been good, but I don't like the meat being too lean, need grease for good chili. And EASY on the chili powder. ORANGE food is NOT edible.
Here's something for the menu:
Giant Cheese Danish
Preheat oven to 375*
Pastry
1/3 cup wheat bran (so no one gets constipated eating too much,lol!)
4 cups flour (at least)
1 stick of real butter
1 package yeast
1 1/4 cups milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg beaten (can be 2 eggs)
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground coriander
Warm milk just a little and add yeast, sugar and 1 cup flour in a large bowl and let it wake up while you beat the egg. then add rest of flour and egg and knead together into dough for about 5 minutes and then refrigerate while you start the cheese part
Cheese Filling
1 large package of neuchatel cheese
1 small container of plain yogurt
1 or 2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
4 or 5 TBS sugar
Mix with electric beater in small bowl and set aside.
Take dough out of fridge and form 2 balls, one slightly larger. Take larger ball and roll out and place in bottom of lasagna pan with edges coming up sides 2 inches. Pour cheese filling into it. Roll out smaller ball and slice into strips to place on top leaving 1/4" between strips. Take a fork and press end of strip into dough at the sides of the pan. Sprinkle with sugar and bake under deeply golden brown - about 45 minutes.
Sounds great!
Are you trying to make me blow my diet?
It's a cool day in the heartland, so I thought I'd bump this thread for a pot of chili for supper ;)
Anything with NO BEANS. Real chili has no beans.
Beans don’t belong in chili. I’ll still eat it, but I won’t like it. (as much)
wo0ho0.. way to resurrect a thread that’s been dead for 2 years.
Real chili has beans you has has-been : )
Chili w/out beans is meat sauce.
It’s the new Undead Thread.
Chili without beans is what one pours over spaghetti!
No, it’s too spicy for spaghetti.
You call yourself an Italian?
Shame.
If it’s meat sauce, it’s not thick enough. Need more meat!
Beanless chili has the wrong seasonings to qualify as spaghetti sauce. It’s not the amount of spice, it’s the type.
I’m a purist.
self ping for later .....man I love chili
With beans or without? It’s important.
QUICK GROUND-TURKEY CHILI
2 pounds ground TURKEY
1 SWEET ONION (LARGE), diced
2 GREEN PEPPER, diced
1 large can (or 2) REDPACK WHOLE TOMATOES
1 can Great Northern or Black Beans (or both)
1 (or 2) bottle GOOD STRONG beer (My fave is Sam Adams)
Loads of McCormick chili powder! 5-6 tablespoons (or more)
1 half-cup sugar
GOOD Olive oil
Put Tomatoes, Beer, sugar, chili powerd in large pot. Crush the tomatoes with your wooden spatula, but leave a little chinky
Brown Turkey in lots of Olive Oil, break it into good-sized chunks
Put fully cooked turkey into pot
Quck stir-fry onions and green pepper in lots more olive oil (I like to leave them crispy), add to pot
Bring to a boil, simmer if you feel like it. Add beans last and simmer just long enough to heat(they over cook if you boil them too long and get all over-soft)
You can serve immediatly for fresh taste of vegetables, and let the rest sit overnight for even BETTER taste (the meat absorbs much flavor)
I have made a pot of this in 15 minutes and served it for dinner. the brand names are listed because those are the ones I found I liked the best.
