Chili


So glad its Friday! Our bulldog (Frank) got sick yesterday and we had to take him to the vet for a bundle of tests. It was no fun, but I think he is feeling better now. I have attached a picture of him hanging out in the pool last summer.

I like the idea of fast meals, but there are few meals that you just can't rush the preparation time on (or you will lose the flavor)- chili is one of these! I found this Ellie Krieger recipe and think its just perfect! I like my chili thicker, so I decreased the amount of water down to 1 1/2 cups (from 2 cups). Also, instead of chipotle chile in adobo sauce, I utilize about 1 1/2 tablespoons of chili powder and a few shakes of hot sauce.
