Better day
For lunch today, I made some chili. I have made chili a hundred plus times, and I love chili with meat, but I have always added lotsa beans. In fact, I start by going to the cabinet and grabbing about 5 cans of whatever beans we have. Got to have some hot chili beans, but then I have added kidney beans, white beans, cannellini beans, black beans, even garbanzo beans, and the mixture is about 2:1 over the meat. So today I just left out the meat. And I did both the lentils and pinto beans from dry in the Instant Pot. Dan’s Chili 2 cans hot chili beans, with their sauce I can black beans, rinsed About a half pound of pinto beans About a cup of black lentils, cooked with onion and garlic 1 can of Rotel tomatoes, blended (I don’t like chunks of tomato in my chili) I added some corn we had left in the fridge, and, on a whim, a small can of black olives. To that mixture in my crockpot, I added (all measures approximate): 1 T. Oregano 3/4 T. Chili powder 2 tsp. Cumin 1/2 tsp. C
