Sunday is coming to a close :(. The rest of my day today was spent cleaning the house and cooking. For dinner tonight, I made the
Ellie Krieger chili I posted about
here. The chili contains three kinds of beans- black, pinto, and kidney. I also added corn (when I added the beans) and used 1 1/2 cups of water instead of two. I used 1 1/2 tablespoons of chili powder instead of the
chipotle chile in
adobo sauce. For the ground beef, I used the 93/7. The recipe is also great with turkey. To go with the chili, I made
Cookie Baker Lynn's Yankee Cornbread. It was very delicious (although I think I will use 1/2 tsp of salt or maybe omit it all together next time).
After dinner, I made up a half batch of
these oatmeal chocolate chip cookies for Josh's lunches this week. I didn't have butter so I used smart balance. Here they are stored in our cookie jar.
Does anyone have any good recipes for
vegetarian chili? Let me know :) Have a good Monday!!

Ellie makes some really good things. You know, a while back I saw a recipe for a quinoa chili on Closet Cooking. You should check it out!
I've got a great vegetarian chili recipe that I found in Men's Health of all places. Let me know if you want it! :)
If those cookies were in my home they would be stored in my belly!
Mmm chili and cornbread, so good. I can't wait until it's actually cold enough here to enjoy it!
Vegetarian chilli - well, I usually just improvise with whatever kinds of beans are around the house, bell peppers, jalapenos, tomato (any kind, or a mixture), onion, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and diced carrots and peas. I usually add in barley or quinoa too for the thickness and the grains.
I know I'll be trying that cornbread soon!
That is so sweet you made the cookies.. I am going to make tinas oatmeal bars this weekend for the boyfriend bday and also the double PB banana cupcakes from peanut butter boy!
The carob powder I got from a local health food store it comes in a container but well worth the buy... I use it so much... I found it by the baking area!
