  1. My husband tried this at a church dinner so I needed to find a recipe to fix it for him. We tried this one and all the way thru he kept telling me it's not right, until he took his 1st bite. Now he loves it and said it needs to go into our regular rotation. Thanks for giving us a great meal!
     
  2. Good basic recipe but I made changes due to what I had on hand. Be careful and only add salt 1 t. at a time. Mine was way to salty until I added some canned tomatoes. Here is what I did:<br/>I thought this was a too salty. I would use only 1t. salt next time. I added: 3 cloves garlic (that I sauteed with the onion), precooked chicken, extra water, 1c. white beans, 2 c. kidney beans, 1 can pureed Italian style tomatoes, and I skipped on the chipotle pepper and the heavy cream. I served with a dollop of sour cream, wedges of avocado, and a few crushed tortilla chips. Pretty tasty. Next time I would also double the recipe so that we would have leftovers.
     
  3. Outstanding...I found this recipe so that I could use some of my fast growing cilantro and it was wonderful. I did add some cilantro to the beans before I placed them in the food processor for a little extra flavor. Far tastier and lighter than regular chili.
     
  4. Awesome is the only word to describe this chili! I used jalapenos in place of the chipotle pepper, to tone down the heat a little. We aren't wimps, but we aren't fire eating dragons either! This has 5***** written all over it, but more like 10!

<p>I've noticed plenty of members are animal lovers. That helps me feel right at home. I have 3 cats that I could tell stories about all day.. <br />My daughter is 9 and never know what to expect when it comes to meal time unless she put in a special request. <br />I love cooking new things all the time since I get bored fairly quickly. Of course there are those recipes that I can't get out of my head and I make them over and over. <br />Following directions is very difficult for me so I use recipes as guidelines and that is it. If something really works for me, I post it. <br />A lot of my favorite recipes are copy cat. I would much rather make something I love from a restaurant than actually go. <br />I make Alice Springs Chicken monthly and Cottage Cheese pancakes at least 4 times a month. Those two recipes will never get old in this house. <br />If I'm taking pictures of my freshly made food, my DD knows she's gonna be trying something new. She doesn't always appreciate it but she is not starving. <br />Enjoy!! <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif alt= /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2/kiwidutch/my3chefs2009final-1.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Holiday-plaid_HPI.gif border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/Permanent%20Banners/snow-queens-sm.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></p>
