it's chilly these days



We've been SOOOO busy these past few weeks, hence the lack of posting. E and I have been buried in assessments- writing memorandums of advice, and prepping for client interviews and negotiations. We finally finished this past Thursday, and it feels pretty amazing. This recipe is from a few weeks ago, but I wanted to post it as it was so delicious.

Winter is full on these days, and chili is such a warm, comforting dish. Perfect for days when you are wrapped up in layers of clothes, fuzzy slippers and mittens. (side note- our new apartment gets VERY cold at night. We just moved to a wicked place on the beach, but there is no heating, so it gets QUITE cold at night. The location is worth it though, and we just make sure there are lots of blankets around!)

Here is the recipe:
1 onion, diced
1 tsp minced garlic
1 rib of celery, diced
1 large carrot, diced
1/2 cup shredded green cabbage
1/2 bell pepper, diced
dried herbs and spices-
1 tsp chile powder
1/2 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp paprika
1 can of kidney beans
1/2 pound of ground turkey
1 can diced tomatoes
1 tsp vegetable stock powder

1. Sweat off the onion and garlic in a little bit of oil.
2. Add in turkey, and cook almost alll the way through
3. Add the chopped vegetables and the herbs and spices.
4. Cook until slightly softened and fragrant.
5. Add in the can of tomatoes and the kidney beans.
6. Sprinkle in the tsp of stock powder.
7. Simmer on low for 10-15 minutes.

serve with shredded cheese, sliced green onions and fresh cilantro.
