Joel was not the easiest Blanks to feed when he was younger. Once I realized that he really liked plain ol' food, the problem was solved. He has some recipes of his own including unbelievable barbecued chicken, fried fish, and a Thai shrimp soup (not so plain ol') that I'll share some time. I think his most requested dish is chili. With this cold snap, I thought I'd share my very simple chili recipe.
2# hamburger (I get very lean)
1 onion, chopped
1/2 large green pepper, chopped
1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. chili powder
3 19 oz. cans of dark red kidney beans
tomato juice
hot sauce
1. Brown hamburger with onion and green pepper
2. Add cumin, chili powder and stir until blended
3. Add kidney beans and simmer for 15 minutes
4. Add enough tomato juice to create the consistency you like; my family likes it thick!
5. Add hot sauce to taste
6. Simmer for 30 minutes
7. Cut off and cool completely
8. Reheat and serve
Have shredded sharp cheddar, chopped green onions, sour cream and cilantro for toppings.
