I have be dying to use it since it first arrived!! Yesterday, I finally fired it up and made delicious Turkey Chili:
Ingredients
- 2lbs of ground turkey ( i used 99% lean)
- 1 20oz can of black beans
- 1 20oz can of crushed tomatoes
- 2 cans of stewed tomatoes
- 2 packets of chili mix
- chipolte pepper flakes
- 1 block of pecorino romano cheese
Directions:
In a large pan, add olive oil (enough to cover bottom) and desired amount of chipolte pepper flakes. Add turkey and cook until there is no pink, add both packets of chili mix with about 1 cup of water and mix it. Place turkey into the slow cooker. Next, stir in beans and crushed tomatoes into the slow cooker. Cut stewed tomatoes and then add them. Add more chipolte pepper flakes if you want it to be really spicy. Turn slow cooker on low for 3 hours, then on high for 1 additional hour.
Serve hot with freshly grated pecorino romano cheese and bread.
I also baked some flourless chocolate cookies I found on pintrest:
They were yummy!!! Trevor liked them too, but we wished we had some milk around because they are verrryyy chocolatey.
While the turkey was finishing up, we took a walk to the Putnam Market to get a loaf of Ciabatta Bread for our chili and a bottle of wine. We love being able to walk everywhere, if Saratoga didn't get so cold and snowy for 5-6 months a year we would definitely live here forever!!
Can't wait until the weekend - we will be checking out 3 wedding venues in Saratoga!!
Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the week!!
Days until Disney: 5!!!!
