Family Favorite Chili

Mon, 03 Nov 2008 23:51:02 -0500

The name says it all...this has always been my family's favorite, even though there are a lot of shortcuts. It is simple to make, tasty and fast. What else can you ask for? To serve, I ladle it into a large bowl and garnish it with lots of shredded cheddar cheese and jalapenos. I insert tortilla chips all around the edge of the bowl for either scooping up some of the chili with (nacho-style) or eating along with the chili itself. -- posted by JackieOhNo!

Bean Soup With Sausage and More - Southwest Flavors

Mon, 01 Dec 2008 19:31:40 -0500

This is Southwest comfort food from Arizona. I didn't know until I moved here how much better dried beans are than canned and how fast they are to soak following tip provided in the directions. I was also introduced to the wonderful flavors of fresh cilantro and Hatch chilies. Genuine Hatch chilies are from Hatch, New Mexico, and can be found fresh here only once a year, roasting in grocery store parking lots. Ohhh they smell so good! But you can get them canned in a lot of grocery stores and they still have that very unique, special flavor. You can substitute jalapeños if you can't find Hatch chilies. I put canned chicken broth in the recipe ingredients but usually use a cup of my own very rich homemade stock and add an extra cup of water. I err on the side of "not-too-hot" because I'm a wimp, but serve extra chilies on the side. The soup freezes very well, but eat the potatoes before freezing. Good with warm, buttered corn tortillas or corn bread. This is my own made-up recipe. Hope you enjoy it as much as we and our guests do! -- posted by pamelad

Tofu Breakfast Burrito

Breakfast becomes a spicy affair with this tasty south-of-the-border treat. Plus, using tofu instead of scrambled eggs cuts down on the caloric value and cholesterol.

10 Minute Tvp Tacos (Modified - Hot Single Guy Version)

Sun, 11 Jan 2009 22:56:45 -0500

I guess I should rephrase that. It's not just for single guys, or hot ones for that matter, I modified the quantity for a single person and made it more spicy. This is based on the 10 Minute TVP Tacos recipe posted by Queenkungfu http://www.recipezaar.com/10-Minute-Tvp-Tacos-289559 but modified, partly because I didn't have taco seasoning mix on hand, I wanted a "cooking for one" recipe, and I just can't seem to follow instructions. Aside from the water and TVP, quantities are approximate since I don't measure much. -- posted by The Urban Gourmet

Mexican Skillet Casserole

This was always their favorite to "come out of the pot" and as teenagers they still ask me for this dish. I hope you enjoy and can make some fun memories with this dish. -- posted by Chef #1122396

Chicken and Bean Chili

Wed, 14 Jan 2009 23:37:52 -0500

Who says you have to cook all day in a crockpot. I use mine to simmer dishes such as this one so I don't have to watch the stove. If you like the flavors of green chili chicken enchiladas you'll love this recipe. I use shredded Rotiserre chicken, Northern Beans and green chiles with a few of my favorite spices to make this hearty chicken chili. What's better than smelling sauteed garlic and onion to start, infusing with red pepper and cumin adding all into a crockpot only to simmer while you do other things. In no time you have a family-pleasing main course. Adjust the heat to your tastes! Add a kick with preprared Salsa for a more intense flavor. If you like soups/chilis or stews thicker, add the cornstarch slurry. Serve with cornbread, tortillas or crusty french bread. ;) V's family favorite! I serve this Chili over leftover spanish rice that I freeze just for this dish. Mmm -- posted by Vseward (Chef~V)

Black Bean Chili / Soup

Thu, 15 Jan 2009 01:21:42 -0500

This was the product of a craving for Mexican food, a cold day and the contents of my cupboard, the result is a thick soup or a thinner veggie chili. It's quite versatile it makes enough for a few meals. The day after I made this I discovered the leftovers make a delicious queso mixed with cheddar cheese soup, paprika and hot sauce to taste. I am guessing at the amount of water since I just threw some in, add whatever you think will yield the right consistency. *If you've never worked with jalapenos before broil them for a few minutes before trying to peel them and the skin will come off much easier. Also wear gloves or bags over your hands because they burn! -- posted by bmarie

Vegetarian Mexican Lasagna

Fri, 30 Jan 2009 00:00:40 -0500

This is from "Vegetarian Times: Low-Fat and Fast" (highly recommended). I've made it quite a few times now, and it's a nice bit of comfort food that doesn't require meat, doesn't add on the pounds, and uses up stuff left in the fridge. I like to serve it with lime cilantro rice and salad. For a tight schedule, assemble ahead of time and refrigerate and then pop it in the oven. -- posted by EmJoMay

Sat, 31 Jan 2009 01:47:10 -0500

I have 100g in a tortilla wrap for breakfast each day, which covers me up until Saturday morning. Add anything you like guacamole, spinach anything you like. -- posted by Kirien

Make Ahead Bean Burrito or Taco Filling (Oamc)

Tue, 10 Feb 2009 00:46:44 -0500

Delicious to have on hand, this bean filling can be used for so much more than tacos or burritos: As a casserole filling, part of a mexican layer dip, lettuce wraps (add some shredded jicama!) etc. You could also modify the flavor profile by adding some fried plantains. If you like, you can wrap up the burritos ahead of time, flash freeze on non-stick trays, and store in freezer bags. I just prefer to thaw the filling and wrap as needed. Don't skip the cinnamon - it really makes the dish! -- posted by Lizzymommy

Spiced Lentil Tacos (Vegetarian)

Tue, 03 Mar 2009 01:00:15 -0500

This is a great recipe for those who want a vegetarian meal without fake "meat". This delicious and simple recipe is from Chef Jennifer Iserloh of New York City (aka "Skinny Chef") and was printed in this month's Self Magazine (February 2009). Following the recipe results in an al dente lentil with a little chew to mimic the texture of ground beef. If you want a softer lentil, you can cook them about 15 minutes longer (in step 1) with added broth until soft. -- posted by blucoat

Lafd Engine Co. No. 28's Vegetarian Black Bean Chili

Sat, 21 Mar 2009 02:46:58 -0400

Engine Co. No. 28, is a popular L.A. restaurant located in an historic building, which was constructed in 1912 as a Los Angeles Fire Department firehouse, which housed 2 engine companies. In 1912 LA's population was 400,000; and New Mexico and Arizona were being admitted into the Union. A trip to the restaurant, established in the 1980's has been called a "a big hug from America"; it serves American favorites and some history. Some cooking notes: although you can use canned beans equalling 4 cups, the restaurant uses dried beans starting with a one pound package which will yield about 4 cups of cooked beans. This chili is best when made one day in advance. The flavors develop better. When reheating, add water if necessary and heat slowly to avoid scorching. The recipe had been published in the Los Angeles Times, reader request column. -- posted by lynnski / LA

This great tasting & super easy recipe is an adaptation of Mandi Foresters White Chicken Chili from the Rachel Ray show.

Wendy Richard's Chili Recipe - the Best Chili Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mon, 27 Apr 2009 12:13:30 -0400

Are you ready for the BEST CHILI you've ever had? Only made this because I am a HUGE fan of Wendy Richard (MBE) who played "Miss Brahms" on "Are You Being Served" and she also played Pauline Fowler on "EastEnders". She recently passed away and printed her famous chili recipe on the back of her funeral program. (You can see a photo of that in here! Check out the photos for this recipe) I've had chili all over Texas and the South - I even made both recipes from "Throwdown with Bobby Flay" (both were VERY good) but I will tell you - hands down - THIS WOMAN'S RECIPE IS THE BEST CHILI I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY WHOLE LIFE! And when I say "THE BEST" I mean: "I am SO STUFFED I might explode - but I can't STOP eating this chili because it tastes so AMAZING". Ok? I tried to put it in the freezer - and ended up taking it out 10 minutes later and eating it again. Today I had it for breakfast on eggs, and lunch and dinner! Can't wait to have more tomorrow! I'm NOT sharing this batch with ANYONE! But I will share the recipe! VERY URGENT/IMPORTANT: THE WHOLE SECRET OF THE RECIPE IS IN THE SCHWARTZ BRAND CHILI MIX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Use any other brand and it will only be a 2-3 star recipe! If you are in the USA the "Schwartz" brand chili mix in this recipe can be ordered online from www.Distantbrits.co.uk or any other British food sites. PLEASE ONLY use "Schwartz" brand if you want this to come out a 5 STAR recipe- if you use any other brand, like "El Paso", "Chichi's" "Ortega" or "McCormicks" it will be disappointing because those 4 brands I just named are nothing but salt and chemicals with very little spices. I HAVE MADE THIS RECIPE WITH THOSE 4 OTHER BRANDS, JUST TO COMPARE -WHICH IS HOW I KNOW, IF YOU USE ANYTHING BUT SCHWARTZ - IT'S GOING TO BE A DISAPPOINTMENT. PLEASE TRUST ME - IT'S SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WORTH IT TO SEND AWAY FOR THE SCHWARTZ BRAND, YOU CAN GET THE SCHWARTZ CHILI MIX IN 2 DIFFERENT HEATS: MEDIUM/MILD AND HOT. I PROMISE YOU - IF YOU ORDER THE SCHWARTZ AND DON'T THINK THIS WAS A 5 STAR CHILI - SEND ME AN EMAIL AND I'LL PAY YOU BACK FOR THE COST OF BUYING THE SCHWARTZ. OK? If you can't find the British "Schwartz" brand, send the lady at distantbrits.co.uk an email requesting it. Tell her which kind of heat you want., "McCormicks" brand in the USA is very disappointing - even the "hot", it's not spicy and the taste really is missing something important. I even tried adding more cumin, and fresh Jalepeno's but McCormicks - it's just NOT AS GOOD as Schwartz, so - if using McCormick's- please know - you've been forwarned: it's not going to be a 5 star chili. If you're in the UK - you should have no problem finding this product. ALSO - careful when ordered because the recipe calls for 4 Schwartz chili. That means chili MIX - NOT 4 bottles of chili powder!!!! (I say be careful because Schwartz also makes chili powder, and you don't need 4 bottles of chili POWDER for this LOL!) I used the HOT Chili Mix, but Wendy specifed "Mild". Get whatever heat you are comfortable with. Be FOREWARNED: If ordering the "Hot" - just because it's from England doesn't mean it's not as hot as you think. While it is the most delish chili mix, It is 5 ALARM Texas hot!!!!! And this is coming from a gal who drinks "Franks Red Hot" straight out of the bottle whenever I have a craving! The mild is "mild" and also extremely delish. Menier's Chocolate is VERY hard to find if you live in the USA. I could only find 1 place online that sells it (Distantbrits.co.uk) Otherwise, use a VERY DARK (Swiss is preffered). When you open the Menier - the actual chocolate says "Nestle", so I guess you could get bittersweet or semi-sweet Nestle. Just don't use Hershey (ugh!) When it smells ready - eat it. You don't HAVE to simmer for 3 hours, as directed by Wendy. (Personally, I couldn't wait that long, it smelled too good) It even tastes amazing room temp hours later! I promise you - if you make this recipe EXACTLY as is - with NO SUBSTITUTIONS ON THE CHILI MIX (you CAN make substitutions on the chocolate)- Your tastebuds will think you've died and gone to heaven. I can see why Wendy would leave such a fantastic Chili recipe on the back of her funeral program - people were probably begging her for years for this recipe. When I make this for the next Texas chili cook-off - this WILL win 1st place - and I will give Wendy Richard all the credit since it is her recipe. Huh! Who'd have thunk the best recipe for Chili would come from ENGLAND!?????!!!!!! R.I.P. Wendy - and I thank YOU for all the years you've made me laugh and cry and for the gift of this AMAZING Chili recipe! I will be entering it into contests in your memory! I also hope all the people here will make this and enjoy it and it becomes a family favorite! -- posted by BBCFan

Corn and Black Bean Macaroni Salad - Tex Mex

Wed, 29 Apr 2009 12:23:11 -0400

Chill a beer for this nice and spicy dish! The elbows should be cooked al dente in well salted water to prevent broken mushy noodles. Do salt the water liberally. (2 teaspoons is not a lot once mixed with the rest of the ingredients) Seasons the pasta and avoids father salting in the recipe. This can be eaten as a side or a main balanced meal. I opted for yogurt and smart balance for better health. But you can use sour cream and mayo. -- posted by ~Rita~

Another twist is subsitute chopped chipotles in adobo sauce instead of sliced jalepenos. You can always cut the tostados after pulling from oven and let guest apply thier own toppings. -- posted by sctdvdltl

This is a very colorful dish. Can be eaten as a cold soup or more traditionally with chips. Friends, family and co-workers request this all the time. Came from my friend April T. -- posted by Simple Chef #14

David's Chili Con Carne Y Frijoles Not Hot

Mon, 01 Jun 2009 00:42:06 -0400

Good eating chili that won't burn your tongue or ruin your taste buds. Cut the ingredients by half, if you wish to have a smaller quantity. The directions remain the same for this. -- posted by Chef #1283475

Sombrero Dip II

Tue, 23 Jun 2009 01:33:06 -0400

This is a recipe I used to make when I first got married. We didn't have the money to go out, so friends would come over and we would play cards and watch movies....great times. All of us would make great appetizer/snack items and this is one of the ones that was always enjoyed! -- posted by breezermom

Southwestern-Style Salad

Sun, 26 Jul 2009 13:04:21 -0400

This delicious main course salad is from the August issue of BBC Good Food magazine. I have altered the recipe slightly to use frozen corn kernels instead of corn on the cob. -- posted by Irmgard

Southwestern Bean Cakes

Mon, 27 Jul 2009 18:33:36 -0400

These are delicious bean cakes made out of white beans with a bit of a southwestern flavor. They can be served with some yummy salsa and a good leafy salad, or even put on a tostada shell with some other toppings of your choice. This is also a vegan recipe, as long as you make sure the vegetable broth does not contain chicken (as many usually do). -- posted by Zielle

Deliciously Versatile Bean Burgers / Veggie Burger

Mon, 03 Aug 2009 11:46:58 -0400

This is a delicious and easy way to get more beans into your diet. This is an extremely versatile recipe, and you can easily change the taste by simply changing the seasonings. The recipe below is just a guideline for your own creativity, and I tend to adjust the ingredients based on what I have on hand. This is extremely healthy and the low cost can't be beat. Serve plain, in a tortilla, pita, or bun, topped with the sauce (below) tomato, onion, lettuce, etc. -- posted by C. Taylor

Vegetarian Bean and Lentil Tacos

Mon, 31 Aug 2009 11:27:56 -0400

I am really trying to eat less meat these days. I was looking for something quick to make but without bouncing back to cooking meat. I looked around at what I had in my cupboards and fridge and came up with these. We enjoyed the way they turned out and will for sure have them again. I suspect this would make a nice tortilla filling too. -- posted by Sarah_Jayne

Southwestern Stew

Mon, 28 Sep 2009 12:31:07 -0400

Super easy, super tasty stew/soup that my entire family loves. This slightly spicy soup can easily be made "less spicy" or more spicy depending on your family's tastes. -- posted by Chef #696882

Green Hell Chili Verde With White Beans and Pork

Sun, 11 Oct 2009 02:49:15 -0400

Another long prep recipe, this hearty and spicy stew is an excellent part of a harvest meal or just perfect for colder days. All of my recipes take a while and produce copious amounts of leftovers, and lend themselves to quick meals later. Green Hell Chili Verde with White Beans and Pork is no exception. Everything from scratch, whenever possible. Adjust the heat by either adding or subtracting fresh jalapeno peppers. Green tomatoes can substitute for tomatillos, or use both if you want. The beans need to be white, but Great Northern beans work really well. Corn flour or wheat flour are important - using cornstarch makes it slimy. Better Than Bouillon makes an excellent Ham Stock concentrate (FYI). -- posted by E. J. Hilden

Chili

Sun, 11 Oct 2009 03:09:42 -0400

As temperatures drop, nothing warms you like a hot and spicy bowl of delicious "Chill Out" Chili. So here is a great recipe is from Pace, the Picante sauce people. This easy-to-make chili may be cooked on the stovetop or in a crockpot. My favorite way to enjoy it is with rice stirred in. So satisfying! -- posted by Deb's Recipes

3-Bean Vegetarian Chili (Goya Beans)

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 16:59:58 -0400

This came off the side of a Goya can of beans (to give credit where it is due) and I'm thinking about subbing the crushed tomatoes with a 28-oz can of pumpkin. Putting it here for safe-keeping. The topping listed came with the recipe but I prefer just to use some cheese to make chili cheese fries or nachos. I also would like to add extra salt and pepper because tomatoes have a natural sweetness, and most vegetarian chilis are too sweet because the tomatoes and beans make up for the lack of beef. -- posted by the80srule

Easy Southwestern Macaroni

Tue, 13 Oct 2009 15:40:05 -0400

What I imagine southwestern macaroni would taste like...a little twist on classic mac n cheese, if you will. Feel free to make your own cheese sauce and spice it however you'd like, but the point of this recipe is being too lazy to do so. :D -- posted by the80srule

Ww Spicy Molasses Baked Beans - 2 Pts.

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 10:15:41 -0500

This is out of a really old Weight Watchers Magazine. Most baked beans use dried beans but this uses canned beans. It saves you hours of cooking time. This is so weird... it says it doesn't include the beans but if you look at the details it does...the recipe in the magazine shows 148 cal, Pro 7.2g, fat 0.6, Carbs 30g, Fib 3.5g -- posted by TeresaS

Based on http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/sweet_potato_corn_black_bean_hash.html which is slightly different. They suggest garnishing with fresh cilantro, lime, and fresh ground black pepper. Things we haven't tried yet: adding sweetener, adding more seasoning, adding peppers. -- posted by Michelle from Central Time

Crockpot Gourmet Chili

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 14:18:45 -0500

This recipe is my own creation for healthy low fat chili with gourmet toppings. Regular chili needs to be dressed up for flavor and fun! The base recipe is very mild for the sensitive pallet. It is easy to make a 5-alarm version by adding cayenne or your favorite habanero sauce. Or, make everyone happy and serve the "super hot sauce" as an additional optional topping. The cool sour cream and tomatoes offset the heat of the chili. -- posted by Chef #1501865

Got this from an old co-worker. Makes a good main dish served with or on fresh cornbread. Leave out or reduce the amount of chillies if you don't like spicy food. I've posted the vegetarian version, but you can make this with cooked ground beef or bacon added in along with the tomatoes, onion, chilies, etc. -- posted by blueyedwineaux

Easy Vegetarian Black Bean Tortilla Soup

Wed, 03 Feb 2010 09:16:46 -0500

Quick, hearty soup with a bit of a kick. Can be made Vegan by omitting sour cream. Tame the spice down by substituting diced tomatoes for the Ro-Tel. I serve the soup with corn chips, but tri-colored tortilla strips add some visual appeal. I like to leave the black beans whole, but you can make it creamy by mashing the beans. -- posted by Chef #1540606
