Ham (or Bacon) and Bean Chowder. by A.L. Wiebe

My version of this hearty, soup, loaded with navy beans and vegetables. I like plenty of stock to boil the beans in, so they don't scorch so easily, and the stock generally reduces with the brisk simmering. I make a roux to thicken the chowder a bit, but you can certainly skip this step if you prefer, just start with less stock.…

Chili, Ground Beef with Options by Just Cookin'

This is a ground beef chili that warms your t.ummy when it's cold outside. It's also good anytime you want chili on hot dogs or another dish. We like things spicy but I know not everyone does.

Sweet and Sour mini meatballs by Erin Bergman

This is an easy semi home made recipe that can be made up to two days ahead and then reheated. It is actually better the next day because the fat is easier to remove and the flavor soaks into the meatballs over night.

Mom's Chili by Syi

This is a nod to my mom. She has been making this chili since I was a little girl. It's a pretty simple, fairly quick & tasty recipe. My favorite variation is to add cooked, cut spaghetti at the end (spaghetti noodles that come already pre-cut to the size of macaroni). For a tasty variation, I like adding chopped zucchini and…
