Chicken Chili

Chicken Chili by Salad Foodie

Classic comfort foods can be made healthier without giving up on good taste. Case in point - this Chicken Chili recipe. Fat is reduced in the sautéing of vegetables and by substituting chicken for beef. But there are plenty of flavors going on here so you won't ask "Where's the beef?" Based on a recipe from Patti LaBelle's Light…

Dad’s Tavern Chili

Dad’s Tavern Chili by Salad Foodie

As an adolescent I was commissioned by my dad to make a huge pot of chili for his tavern weekly, and I earned fifty cents a batch doing so! (This was before the era of food safety regulation and inspection - I just made it in our home kitchen!) Dad had taught me how to make his chili, and everyone agreed it was in a class of its…

Firecracker Chili

Firecracker Chili by Patti Fisher

We had 3lbs. of stew beef and a few ideas. Stew, for instance, but that included veggies Ken doesn’t like. I suggested chili and was scoffed at because Ken is the chili master…a well deserved title. But, today I actually impressed him with my first from scratch chili. Woo Hoo ! Lots of smoky heat and tender meat. Excellent!!!…

Saute the beef and open some cans. Thirty minutes later you have a wonderful pot of chili. The cost of this recipe is about $2.00 per person, not what is suggested below.

Chili con Carne - Stove Top or Crock Pot!

Chili con Carne - Stove Top or Crock Pot! by Salad Foodie

Hurray for fall and chili time! This makes a batch for about 5 adult servings, but there’s no such thing as having too much chili. You can freeze leftovers or just double the recipe and freeze the extra for busy week nights. I try to make a day ahead to deepen the flavors.

Made with brisket, this chili can be used for tacos, enchiladas, or put in a bowl with some cheese, onions, crackers, or serve it with cornbread. Also, it makes a good chili burger or chili dog.

Tex-Mex Turkey Chili with Beans

Tex-Mex Turkey Chili with Beans by myra byanka

Easy crockpot or Dutch oven recipe I came up with when I found some ground turkey on sale. Works on the stovetop, too. This recipe is fairly low fat, as turkey is 40% leaner than ground beef. Serve with cornbread or crackers.

Brew and Bean Chili

Brew and Bean Chili by Jackie Newgent

Beer’s not just for drinking anymore! It’s for stewing—or “eco-brewing.” As this chili is sans meat, the beer adds another layer of flavor. My favorite part of the recipe, though, is how fast it is to fix. My carbon footprint appreciates that and yours will, too. (Adapted from Big Green Cookbook by Jackie Newgent, RD)

Meatless Fridays #1– Vegetarian Chili

Meatless Fridays #1– Vegetarian Chili by Ed Schenk

This is the first in a series of meatless Friday posts. Today we are having vegetarian chili. Lately even if I make chili with meat I add just a little bit. As it happens the older I get the more I seem to appreciate non meat dishes. This is not to say that I am a burgeoning vegetarian,I still love steak, ribs and chicken, But I eat…
