Cure For the Common Chili...
...and just about everything else.
I am entering a chili cook-off at church today. The defender of last years chili is hoping to retain his title. Mine is simmering on the stove while I write down the kicking recipe before i lose it from My sieve of a mind. It is dedicated to my friend in Journey group, Yong Yi, who showed me that ginger and common spaghetti sauce do go together! I had some ginger marinated pork one night when we met for our one on one, and my palate hasn't quite been satisfied without ginger since. I guess you can tell what one of my ingredients is already!
Cure for the Common Chilli
Rebecca Saylor 9-25-09 Why?
3lbs all natural, lean, dark, ground turkey Good for you, lower on the bad boy meats list
4 Tbsp Extra virgin olive oil A good fat, and also anti-viral
One large yellow onion diced Onions are as good as expectorants, topically
One large white onion diced Or taken internally
The large red Bell peppers Always eat a rainbow of vegetables
(I would have put 2-3 green ones in too, but d/n) I thought i had some already @ home
Begin to brown these in a large heavy bottomed stainless steel pot or better yet cast iron-for FE
Add these while stirring and checking for sticking:
Four large garlic bulbs pressed Ant-viral
I tsp Paprika
1/2 tsp cumin
2-3 tsp chili powder
2 Tbsp dreid cilantro ( fresh is always better--liberal amounts of of for the B,C,K, and calcium
1/4-1/2tsp Mexican fiesta
(all seasonings are frontier brand)
Here is where it get s weird and super immune boosting
Keep stirring,as the garlic will burn and stick, and the spices are caramelizing and sticking
1/4 cup of finely ground flax seed ha-ha, you won't even know fiber and omega
2 tsp freshly ground ginger root counteracts the beans if ya get my drift
the juice of one lemon, and some fine zest just do it, trust me. For vitamin C at least
4 cups or more of shredded zucchini and winter squash--yeah, didn't know that either
three cans of black beans juice and all (all natural--no chemicals please!!!!)
three cans of red kidney beans juice and all (I only had two, thought i had one already at home)
One 29 ox can of tomato puree
+ enough water to rinse it out--less than 1/2 the can
1 8oz can of tomatoe paste (just get it out with a scraper)
This stuff will get thick and want to stick due to the flax, even if you used diced tomatoes instead of puree--don't be too fussy. But keep it simmering over low heat and watch it. After the zucchini disappears, you can put it in a crock pot to keep it safely warm. Garnish with black olive slices, avocado, maybe some (rice shredded rice cheese... and a hearty side of corn bread, corn chips (baked please) or rice,noodles. A cup a day will keep the DR at bay...make it weekly.& Enjoy
Afterward: Soory It looked really neat before it was posted--I had the ingredients on one side, and the reason why on the other--so thtere are random words--maybe someday i will fix that--if anyone wants the recipe--I will fix it and send it. AND I planned to enter it into the most original category--but all samples were judged and categorized by the panel of judges--So I won third place for the best tasting--Cheers to the guy who won first. He had chunks of grilled london broil in his. The guy who won the cookoff at a local arts and riverfront festival tried my chili tonight (thankfully he did not enter any, or I would not have made third!!) and he gave the thumbs up. It was all eaten up. That will suffice for a review. Have a great week. And Debbie, I met the people who arranged their cousin to host Annie and Taiwan, looking for a comment fromU.
